What is a U nucleotide?

A U nucleotide is a type of ribonucleotide that is a component of RNA (ribonucleic acid). It stands for uracil, one of the four nucleobases found in RNA molecules, along with adenine, cytosine, and guanine. In RNA, uracil pairs with adenine during the process of transcription.


What is the base of RNA in place of thymine which bonds with adenine?

The nitrogen base uracil takes the place of thymine in RNA. So in RNA, uracil pairs with adenine.


What nucleotide replaces thymine?

Uracil replaces Thymine in DNA. Adenine and Thymine go together while Cytosine and Guanine go with each other in DNA. But, in RNA, Thymine is replaces with Uracil. So not Adenine and Uracil go together, while Cytosine and Guanine pair up.


What is in RNA but not in DNA?

Uracil


What does uracil pair with in the genetic code?

Uracil replaces thymine in RNA so uracil bonds with adenosine

What nitrogen base replaces thymine (T) in RNA?

RNA and DNA both share the nitrogen bases adenine (A), cytosine (C), and guanine (G).


Is DNA composed of uracil?

No, only RNA contains uracil.


What does uracil replace in RNA?

Uracil replaces thymine in RNA.


Does RNA contain uracil?

Yes, RNA contains uracil.


Does trna contain uracil?

Yes, tRNA (transfer RNA) contains uracil. In the structure of tRNA, uracil replaces thymine, which is found in DNA. This presence of uracil is part of what distinguishes RNA from DNA, as RNA typically contains uracil instead of thymine.
