Description:
Uracil is a rna-specific base that corresponds to thymine (T) in DNA. During the transcription of DNA, the DNA is unwound by a helicase in the nucleus and paired with free base pairs to form a single strand of RNA, called messenger RNA(mRNA). During this process, the base pairing principles are a-u, c-g, t-a, g-c. One of the bases of a pyrimidine, which together with cytosine is a constituent of RNA. It is also found in important precursors of polysaccharides such as glucoside diphosphate. Exhibit specific uv absorption (Max. 259 nm). The main difference between RNA and DNA is the composition of sugar. RNA contains Uracil and DNA contains thymine.
Uracil is a drug, such as anti-giant red cell anemia, treatment of the liver; Cerebrovascular; For cardiovascular diseases, fluorouracil (s-fc) is also made. Deoxynucleoside; Iodine glycosides (IDUR); Bromine glycosides (BUDR); Fluoroside (FUDR) and other drugs are the main raw materials.
