Polydeoxyribonucleotides are long, synthetic chains of deoxyribonucleotides that are often used in research and medical settings as a component of nucleic acid-based therapies or for the study of DNA structure and function. They can be chemically synthesized with specific sequences to target and manipulate specific genes or genetic elements.

Polyribonucleotides are long, unbranched chains of ribonucleotide monomers, which are the building blocks of RNA (Ribonucleic Acid). Each ribonucleotide monomer consists of a ribose sugar, a phosphate group, and one of four nitrogenous bases: adenine, uracil, guanine, or cytosine. In polyribonucleotides, these monomers are linked together through phosphodiester bonds between the sugar of one monomer and the phosphate group of another, creating a linear structure. These molecules play crucial roles in various biological processes, such as protein synthesis, gene regulation, and cell signaling.
