In RNA, a complementary pair is formed between the nitrogenous bases adenine (A) and uracil (U), as well as between cytosine (C) and guanine (G). This base pairing occurs through hydrogen bonding, where A pairs with U, and C pairs with G, facilitating the structure and function of RNA molecules. Unlike DNA, RNA does not contain thymine; instead, uracil takes its place in the pairing process.
What else can I help you with?
What type of base pairing occur during transcriptions?
the types that occur are complementary and antiparallel. For example, DNA A will pair with RNA U and DNA C will pair with RNA G.
In RNA thymine is absent and what is substituted?
Uracil is substituted. Uracil is complementary to adenine in RNA. In DNA, adenine is complementary to thymine.
Do the rna nucleotides pair exactly as they were DNA replication?
No, RNA nucleotides in transcription pair with complementary DNA nucleotides according to the base pairing rules (A-U, G-C), as opposed to replicating DNA in which DNA nucleotides pair with complementary DNA nucleotides (A-T, G-C).
Is A C a legitimate base pair?
Not in DNA. In DNA the only base pairs are A-T and C-G. RNA can form non-canonical base pairings, so you might get some AC in RNA structures.
Does RNA look like ladder cut in half?
Yes, RNA can adopt a secondary structure known as a "hairpin loop" in which it can appear similar to a ladder cut in half. This structure forms when regions within the RNA strand pair up with complementary bases, leading to a distinctive double-helix shape with a loop at the end.
What base pairs with Adenine in RNA?
Uracil. In normal DNA it would be Thymine, but in RNA Uracil becomes the base pair for Adenine.
What type of base pairing occur during transcriptions?
the types that occur are complementary and antiparallel. For example, DNA A will pair with RNA U and DNA C will pair with RNA G.
In RNA thymine is absent and what is substituted?
Uracil is substituted. Uracil is complementary to adenine in RNA. In DNA, adenine is complementary to thymine.
What bases forms a true complementary pair?
cytosine and guanine
Do the rna nucleotides pair exactly as they were DNA replication?
No, RNA nucleotides in transcription pair with complementary DNA nucleotides according to the base pairing rules (A-U, G-C), as opposed to replicating DNA in which DNA nucleotides pair with complementary DNA nucleotides (A-T, G-C).
Is A C a legitimate base pair?
Not in DNA. In DNA the only base pairs are A-T and C-G. RNA can form non-canonical base pairings, so you might get some AC in RNA structures.
What is a basepair?
A basepair is a pair of nucleotides on opposite complementary DNA or RNA strands which are connected via hydrogen bonds.
A nitrogen base in RNA that is complementary to thymine is?
Thymine is not present in RNA, only in DNA. The base pairs for RNA are adenine & uracil, and guanine & cytosine. Uracil replaces Thymine in RNA.
Uracil will pair with what other on DNA?
Uracil is the base used in messenger RNA in place of thymine, and is complementary to adenine.
When using DNA as a template to make a complementary strand of RNA this is called?
The process in which a mRNA molecule forms (by base-pairing) along a part of a DNA molecule is called transcription.
What is base-pairing?
A basepair is a pair of nucleotides on opposite complementary DNA or RNA strands which are connected via hydrogen bonds.
Which sequence of RNA bases with pair up with a strand of DNA bases that reads TACTGCA?
The complementary RNA sequence that would pair with the DNA sequence TACTGCA is AUGACGU. This is because in RNA, uracil (U) is used instead of thymine (T) to pair with adenine (A), cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G), and vice versa.
