Deoxyadenosine monophosphate also known as deoxyadenylate or dAMP is a derivative of the common nucleic acid AMP or adenosine monophosphate in which the -OH (hydroxyl) group on the 2′ carbon on the nucleotide’s pentose has been reduced to just a hydrogen atom (hence the deoxy- part of the name). Deoxyadenosine monophosphate is abbreviated dAMP. It is a monomer used in DNA.
