Cytosine (C) and Guanine (G) pair, as do Adenine (A) and Thymine (T).
Guanine (G)
Cytosine, a pyrimidine (sugar) base, pairs with Guanine, a purine (nitrogen) base.
Guanine pairs with cytosine
Cytosine is the complement of guanine. no surprise
The base pairing-rules for DNA are that, only the Nitrogen Bases of DNA which are; Adenine "A"-which only pairs with-Thymine "T", and Cytosine "C"-which only pairs with-Guanine "G" can only pair to one another within that sequence.Posted By; JoelBaum24
They form hydrogen bonds with their complementary base pair. There are 3 hydrogen bonds that link Cytosine and Guanine, however there are only 2 hydrogen bonds that link Adenine and Thymine.
No. Adenine doesn't even usually pair with Cytosine. If you're talking about DNA, Adenine pairs with Thymine and Cytosine pairs with Guanine. A with T, C with G. This is only a general rule, however- Adenine and Cytosine can pair if you have a wobble base pair.
Guanine goes with Cytosine
It is not a DNA base pair itself, it is a DNA nucleotide base. It does however, form a base pair when bonded with adenine.
Cytosine, a pyrimidine (sugar) base, pairs with Guanine, a purine (nitrogen) base.
Guanine
Cytosine should not ever pair with thymine, for two major reasons: Cytosine and thymine are both pyrimidines, meaning they contain a single sugar, whereas adenine and guanine are purine and contain a two-ringed sugar. If cytosine were to pair with thymine (or another cytosine) it would throw off the shape of the DNA double helix. Cytosine wants to form three hydrogen bonds, and thymine can only form two. Thus, under normal circumstances, cytosine will never be paired with thymine.
Cytosine binds [bonds] with Guanine.
Guanine pairs with cytosine
Guanine
Thymine can only pair with adenine and guanine can only pair with cytosine due to the base-pairing rule.
