it is complimentary to thymine. it forms a double bond with thymine.
Thymine...
DNA Bases are complimentary as each base only binds to one other (Adenine to Thymine and Guanine to Cytosine).
Adenine is complimentary to thymine. Cytosine is complimentary to guanine.
adenine
Thymine nitrogen base is complementary to Adenine.
No, it is a nitrogen base.
adenine
Uracil is the nitrogen base found in RNA that pairs with adenine in DNA.
In protein synthesis, complimentary nitrogen bases are found in the process of transcription and translation. In transcription, DNA's nitrogen bases A (adenine), T (thymine), G (guanine), and C (cytosine) pair with RNA's nitrogen bases A (adenine), U (uracil), G (guanine), and C (cytosine). In translation, codons on mRNA, made up of A, U, G, and C, pair with anticodons on tRNA during protein synthesis.
Complimentary bases are bases that fit together. (Guanine and Cytosine & Adenine and Thymine). A & T are complimentary. G & C are, too. They are bases (the letters) that fit together on a double helix. Complimentary bases are bases that fit together. (Guanine and Cytosine & Adenine and Thymine). A & T are complimentary. G & C are, too. They are bases (the letters) that fit together on a double helix.
Adenine
In RNA, there are four kinds of base: adenine, guanine, cytosine and uracil. There are no thymine bases. Therefore, there are no thymine and adenine base pairs. Addtional answer: The complimentary base of adenine in RNA is uracil which is a unmenthylated form of thymine. When menthylation occurs it becomes thymine which is paired with adenine in DNA. Thymine can also be called 5-methyluracil because it becomes thymine when methylation of uracil occurs at the 5th carbon.
