The discovery of uracil and its pairing with adenine in RNA was a crucial milestone in understanding the genetic code and the central dogma of molecular biology. This knowledge laid the foundation for ...
In this type of pairing, adenine (A) forms two hydrogen bonds with thymine (T) in DNA or uracil (U) in RNA, while guanine (G) forms three hydrogen bonds with cytosine (C). These base pairs are highly ...
(Where DNA uses thymine, RNA uses uracil.) Two nucleotides together form a base pair; the sugars and phosphates form a ...
