== List of nucleosides and corresponding nucleobases {{Anchor|List of nucleosides and corresponding nucleobases}}<!--This section is linked at all of the relevant articles, so maintain the anchor here even if the heading wording changes.--> == ''This list does not include [[Nucleobase#Modified nucleobases|modified nucleobases]] and the corresponding nucleosides'' Each chemical has a short symbol, useful when the chemical family is clear from the context, and a longer symbol, if further disambiguation is needed. For example, long nucleobase sequences in genomes are usually described by CATG symbols, not Cyt-Ade-Thy-Gua (see ''[[Nucleic acid sequence#Notation|Nucleic acid sequence Β§ Notation]]''). {| border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" align="center" style="margin-left:1em" class="skin-invert-image" |- align="center" valign="bottom" !
