What is Base pair?
In [[molecular biology]], two [[nucleotide]]s on opposite [[complementarity (molecular biology)|complementary]] [[DNA]] strands that are connected by [[hydrogen bond]]s are called a '''base pair''' (often abbreviated bp). In DNA pairing, [[adenine]] (A) forms a base pair with [[thymine]] (T), to form an A/T base pair. [[Guanine]] (G) pairs with [[cytosine]] (C) in DNA, to form a G/C base pair. == Related pages == * [[DNA]] * [[Nucleobase]] {{-}} {{biology-stub}} [[Category:Molecular biology]]
