thymine

In the given example, the adenine at the 76th position was replaced by a thymine.

Base analog such as 5-bromouracil may substitute for thymine in replication.

This damage is mainly the formation of a thymine dimer.

Other names in common use include thymine 7-hydroxylase, 5-hydroxy-methyluracil dioxygenase, and 5-hydroxymethyluracil oxygenase.

It can also form the same hydrogen bond with an adenine base paired to a thymine.

RNA also contains the base uracil in place of thymine.

Dihydrothymine is an intermediate in the metabolism of thymine.

First, the concentration of the pyrimidines (thymine and adenine) are always found in the same amount as one another.

Spontaneous deamination of 5-methylcytosine results in thymine and ammonia.

As the name suggests, thymine may be derived by methylation of uracil at the 5th carbon.

Since folate is needed by rapidly dividing cells to make thymine, this effect may be used to therapeutic advantage.

Py denotes pyrimidine which can be either cytosine or thymine.

The error is called a thymine dimer.

Such damages can include the thymine dimers created by UV rays.

Through a series of radical reactions the photodimer, 3 5-thyminyl-5,6-dihydrothymine, is disconnected to give back two functional thymine rings.

Spina muscular atrophy is caused by a transition from cytosine to thymine.

In addition it contains thymine, guanine and cytosine.

However, nutrient starvation generally do not kill cells to the extent as observed in cells that lack thymine.

Scientists knew there were a total of four bases (guanine, cytosine, adenine, and thymine).

It catalyzes the reduction of uracil and thymine.

Eukaryotic cells also contains 5-methylcytosine, thought to be involved in the control of gene transcription, which can become deaminated into thymine.

Guanine when alkylated may be mispaired with thymine.

Pyrimidine is a component of the nucleobases cytosine, uracil, and thymine.

This unique nucleotide composition is thought to be due to selection pressure of adenine over thymine in the coding region.

It is base pairs with adenine and replaces thymine in DNA.
