When do you use u in a DNA sequence?

The letter "u" is used in DNA sequences to represent deoxyuridine, which is a base found in RNA but not in DNA. In RNA sequences, "u" stands for uracil instead of thymine, which is found in DNA sequences.


What are the base pairings for DNA and RNA?

DNA has A-T and C-G while RNA has A-U and C-G


What is the one letter that is different from DNA in the RNA code?

RNA uses Uracil (U) in place of T (thymine) in DNA.


How are the bases in RNA paired with the bases in DNA?

In RNA, adenine (A) pairs with uracil (U), cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G), and guanine (G) pairs with cytosine (C), similar to DNA. However, uracil (U) replaces thymine (T) as the complementary base for adenine (A) in RNA.


DNA A goes with what mRNA?

DNA A pairs with mRNA U.


What is U in DNA?

The U stands for uracil. But remember, that uracil is only in RNA. In DNA the U is replaced with T (thymine).


Is there a template for transcribing original DNA to base sequence of RNA?

Yes, to transcribe DNA to RNA, replace thymine (T) in DNA with uracil (U) in RNA. Simply write down the complementary RNA bases to the DNA bases following this rule to transcribe the original DNA sequence to RNA.


What basepairing is found in DNA and RNA?

The Complementary base pairing of DNA is A with T and C with G. In Rna, T is replaced with U.


What are the 5 nucleotides that make up DNA and rna?

adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T) are the four nitrogen bases of DNA. In RNA, instead of Thymine (T), it would Uracil(U). So when you transcript a DNA into an RNA, T would be U.


How are DNA and RNA simular?

DNA: deoxyribonucleic acid RNA: ribonucleic acid Both DNA and RNA are polymers of nucleotides. They both contain a sugar-phosphate backbone (deoxyribose sugar in DNA, ribose sugar in RNA) and they both contain A, G, and C nitrogenous bases (additionally, T in DNA and U in RNA).


What are the purposes of DNA and RNA in the body?

well DNA is wat makes u look the way u look and its wat makes u act the way u cat sorry cant say much about RNA


Complementary DNA bases for RNA bases?

The complementary DNA bases for RNA bases are: adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T) in DNA, instead of uracil (U) in RNA; cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G) in both DNA and RNA. So, in DNA: A pairs with T, and C pairs with G, while in RNA: A pairs with U, and C pairs with G.
