Deoxyguanosine monophosphate (abbreviated dGMP) is a derivative of the common nucleic acid guanosine triphosphate (GTP), 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). The "monophosphate" portion of the name indicates that two of the phosphoryl groups of GTP have been removed, most likely by hydrolysis.
