The chemical reactions and pathways involving various organic and inorganic nitrogenous compounds, as carried out by individual cells. Any cellular metabolic process involving nucleobases, nucleosides, nucleotides and nucleic acids. The nucleic acid metabolic process by which the phosphodiester bonds between nucleotides are cleaved by hydrolysis. The cellular chemical reactions and pathways involving RNA, ribonucleic acid, one of the two main type of nucleic acid, consisting of a long, unbranched macromolecule formed from ribonucleotides joined in 3',5'-phosphodiester linkage. Any cellular metabolic process involving nucleic acids. Any cellular metabolic process involving deoxyribonucleic acid. This is one of the two main types of nucleic acid, consisting of a long, unbranched macromolecule formed from one, or more commonly, two, strands of linked deoxyribonucleotides. The cellular synthesis of either RNA on a template of DNA or DNA on a template of RNA. The chemical reactions and pathways involving those compounds which are formed as a part of the normal anabolic and catabolic processes. These processes take place in most, if not all, cells of the organism.
