Which of the following are Pyrimidine bases?
In DNA and RNA, Pyrimidine bases form hydrogen bonds with their complementary purines. Thus, in DNA, the purines adenine (A) and guanine (G) pair up with the pyrimidines thymine (T) and cytosine (C), respectively. In RNA, the complement of adenine (A) is uracil (U) instead of thymine (T), so the pairs that form are adenine: uracil and guanine: cytosine. Ref: Rodwell V.W. (2011). Chapter 32. Nucleotides.
