Can purine be found in nucleotide of rna?
Yes, purine bases are found in RNA nucleotides. Adenine and guanine are purines that are components of RNA nucleotides.
Which RNA and DNA nucleotides are purines?
The purines adenine and guanine are two of the four nitrogen bases in DNA. There are many other purines that are found in nature, but not in DNA.
Purines and pyrimidines are?
Purines and pyrimidines are two types of nitrogenous bases found in DNA and RNA molecules. Purines include adenine and guanine, while pyrimidines include cytosine, thymine (in DNA), and uracil (in RNA). They are essential for the structure and function of nucleic acids in organisms.
What do purines bond to in RNA?
Uracil will bond with Adenine. In protein synthesis however, Thymine replaces the Adenine and forms a bond with Uracil. (Please keep in mind that Uracil is only found in RNA[ribonucleic acid]).
Can purines pair with other purines?
No, purines cannot pair with other purines in DNA or RNA. Purines always pair with pyrimidines through complementary base pairing to maintain the double-stranded structure of DNA. In DNA, adenine (a purine) pairs with thymine (a pyrimidine) and guanine (a purine) pairs with cytosine (a pyrimidine).
