Cytosine residues are particularly susceptible to them.
It binds to Cytosine through three hydrogen bonds.
These bases are adenine, guanine, Cytosine, and thymine.
In Cytosine, the amino group acts as the hydrogen bond donor
Adenine is always associated with thymine and
guanine is always associated with Cytosine.
The nitrogenous bases are of four types? adenine, guanine, Cytosine and thymine.
The drug intermediate 5- aza Cytosine can be obtained by the reaction of dicyandiamide with formic acid.
In Cytosine, the amino group acts as the hydrogen bond donor
and the C-2 carbonyl and the N-3 amine as the hydrogen-bond acceptors.
Cytosine(/ˈsaɪtəˌsiːn,-ˌziːn,-ˌsɪn/; C)
is one of the four main bases found in DNA and RNA, along with adenine, guanine, and thymine uracil in RNA.
