Present-day known predominance of the β- over the α-anomers in nucleosides and nucleotides emerges from a thermodynamic analysis of their assembly from their components, i.e. bases, sugars, and a phosphate group. Furthermore, the incorporation of uracil into RNA and thymine into DNA rather than the...
