No, Uracil doesn't occur in double stranded DNA. Doublestranded DNA contains Guanine paired with Cytosine and Adenine paired with Thymine.

In RNA, however, Adenine is always paired with Uracil instead of Thymine.

What is always paired with adenine?

Adenine is always paired with thymine in DNA and with uracil in RNA through hydrogen bonds.


Do uracil always pair with cytosine in the RNA molecule?

Cytosine is always coupled with Guanine. (I like to remember that the round letters stick together).In DNA, Thymine is coupled with Adenine, but in RNA, Thymine is replaced by Uracil.Therefore, in RNA, U and A go together, always.


In RNA which nucleotide is always paired with uracil?

This pairs up with Adenine just as Thymine had.


What paired with adenine in RNA?

Uracil (U).


What is the base pair for uracil?

uracil is not found in DNA it is thymine in DNA, Uracil is only found in RNA In DNA guanine goes with cytosine Adenine goes with Thymine in RNA G goes with C but the only difference is that Adenine is paired with Uracil

Where is nitrogenous base uracil found?

Uracil, represented by a U, is found in Ribonucleic acid, or RNA for short. it is used as a substitute for thymine to be paired with adenine.


What is the meaning of Uracil?

Uracil is a base in RNA which contains nitrogen. It comes from pyrimidine. It is often used in science, regularly in Bio-chemistry and can be paired with adenine.

According to the DNA base pairing rules cytosine always bonds with what?

In DNA adenine pairs with thymine. In RNA adenine pairs with uracil.


In each species does the amount of adenine equal to the amount of thymine?

Every adenine in DNA will be paired to a thymine. However in RNA adenine is paired to uracil. So no - all else being equal since there is DNA and RNA in a body there will not be equal amounts.


What does adenine always pairs with what nitrogen base?

Adenine always pairs with thymine in DNA and with uracil in RNA.
