ribose, five-carbon sugar[1] found in RNA[2] (ribonucleic acid), where it alternates[3] with phosphate groups to form the “backbone” of the RNA polymer[4] and binds to nitrogenous bases. Ribose phosphates are components of the nucleotide[5] coenzymes and are utilized by microorganisms in the synthesis of the amino acid[6] histidine[7].
