The nucleic acid strand orientation identified on the basis of important chemical functional groups. These are the:
The Phosphate group attached to the 5' carbon atom of the sugar portion of a nucleotide and 
and the f
ree hydroxyl group that is (-OH) is attached to the 3' carbon atom.
There is also nitrogenous base which is attached to the 1' carbon atom.
