ChEBI

Definition : An oligonucleotide comprised of 7'-methylguanosine connected via a triphosphate linkage from its 5'-position to the 5'-position of a ribonucleotide, in turn connected through a (3'right5') triphosphate linkage to a chain of (3'right5') triphosphate-linked ribonucleotide residues. The number of nucleotide residues in the chain is between 1 and 8.

Definition : Any member of the class of organooxygen compounds that is a polyhydroxy-aldehyde or -ketone or a lactol resulting from their intramolecular condensation (monosaccharides); substances derived from these by reduction of the carbonyl group (alditols), by oxidation of one or more hydroxy groups to afford the corresponding aldehydes, ketones, or carboxylic acids, or by replacement of one or more hydroxy group(s) by a hydrogen atom; and polymeric products arising by intermolecular acetal formation between two or more such molecules (disaccharides, polysaccharides and oligosaccharides). Carbohydrates contain only carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms; prior to any oxidation or reduction, most have the empirical formula Cm(H2O)n. Compounds obtained from carbohydrates by substitution, etc., are known as carbohydrate derivatives and may contain other elements. Cyclitols are generally not regarded as carbohydrates.
