Chemical structure of guanine, showing its double-ring purine structure and the functional groups involved in hydrogen bonding with cytosine. (Image: Public Domain) Guanine has the chemical formula ...

In DNA, cytosine pairs with guanine through three hydrogen bonds, forming a stable base pair. The sequence of these base pairs along the DNA strand encodes genetic information. During DNA replication, ...

Adenine pairs with thymine, while guanine pairs with cytosine. However, sometimes, cytosines can pair with each other, rather than with guanine. This causes a DNA molecule to twist in on itself ...

The bases on these nucleotides are very particular about what they connect to. Cytosine (C) will "pair" to guanine (G), and adenine (A) will "pair" to thymine (T). How the bases are arranged in ...

guanine, cytosine, thymine, and uracil. (Where DNA uses thymine, RNA uses uracil.) Two nucleotides together form a base pair; ...

With the arrival of a new class of single-nucleotide editors, researchers can target the most common type of pathogenic SNP in humans. Now, researchers at Harvard University have designed a new class ...

adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G), and cytosine (C). Within double-stranded DNA, the nitrogenous bases on one strand pair with complementary bases along the other strand; in particular ...
