Uracil (/ ˈ j ʊər ə s ɪ l /) (symbol U or Ura) is one of the four nucleotide bases in the nucleic acid RNA. The others are adenine (A), cytosine (C), and guanine (G). In RNA, uracil binds to adenine via two hydrogen bonds. In DNA, the uracil nucleobase is replaced by thymine (T). Uracil is a demethylated form of thymine.
uracil, a colourless, crystalline organic compound of the pyrimidine family that occurs as a component of ribonucleic acid (RNA), a molecule involved in the transmission of hereditary characteristics.
6 ημέρες πριν · Uracil (U) is one of the four nucleotide bases in RNA, with the other three being adenine (A), cytosine (C) and guanine (G). In RNA, uracil pairs with adenine. In a DNA molecule, the nucleotide thymine (T) is used in place of uracil.
19 Ιαν 2021 · Definition. noun. plural: uracils. u·ra·cil, ˈjʊərəsɪl. (biochemistry) A pyrimidine nucleobase in RNA that complementary pairs with adenine, and has a chemical formula of C 4 H 4 N 2 O 2. Details. Overview. Nucleic acid s such as DNA and RNA are polymer s of monomeric nucleotide s.
10 Αυγ 2020 · In this paper we will review: (i) sources of the origin of uracil in DNA; (ii) some properties of the enzymes responsible for the excision of uracil and their role in the Ig diversification process, which comprises somatic hypermutation and class switch recombination; and (iii) consequences of cytosine deamination in other than the Ig loci, in ...
16 Δεκ 2002 · Uracil in DNA results from deamination of cytosine, resulting in mutagenic U : G mispairs, and misincorporation of dUMP, which gives a less harmful U : A pair.
16 Ιαν 2023 · Uracil is a base analogue of thymine and is found in both DNA and RNA (Figure 1). As a pyrimidine nucleotide it has an amino acid group at the 2′ position and a carboxy group at the 5′ position. U and T are equivalent in their information storage, transmission and their base pairing with adenine.
