1. Sugar is ribose, but not deoxy at 2' position.
2. Common bases are adenine, guanine, cytosine, uracil.
3. It is alkali labile due to presence of -OH group at 2' carbon.
4. It does not act as template for its synthesis.
5. It is normally single stranded, rarely double stranded.
6. It is genetic material in a few viruses only.
