  2. Wobble base pair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wobble_base_pair

    Wobble base pairs for inosine and guanine. A wobble base pair is a pairing between two nucleotides in RNA molecules that does not follow Watson-Crick base pair rules. [1] The four main wobble base pairs are guanine-uracil (G-U), hypoxanthine-uracil (I-U), hypoxanthine-adenine (I-A), and hypoxanthine-cytosine (I-C).

  3. Non-canonical base pairing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-canonical_base_pairing

    A common example is the C-loop motif, [78] [79] where the bulging loop residues make non-canonical base pairing with the bases of double helical regions forming non-canonical base pairing (Figure 9). The extra base pairs in these cases give rise to additional stabilization to the composite double helix containing motif.

  4. Spiro compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spiro_compound

    Bicyclic ring structures in organic chemistry that have two fully carbocyclic (all carbon) rings connected through a carbon atom are the usual focus of the topic of spirocycles. Simple parent spirocycles include spiropentane, spirohexane, etc. up to spiroundecane. Several exist as isomers. Lower members of the class are strained.

  5. Anaerobic respiration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaerobic_respiration

    Anaerobic cellular respiration and fermentation generate ATP in very different ways, and the terms should not be treated as synonyms. Cellular respiration (both aerobic and anaerobic) uses highly reduced chemical compounds such as NADH and FADH 2 (for example produced during glycolysis and the citric acid cycle) to establish an electrochemical gradient (often a proton gradient) across a membrane.

  6. Base (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    The equilibrium constant for this reaction at 25 °C is 1.8 x 10 −5, [12] such that the extent of reaction or degree of ionization is quite small. Lewis bases A Lewis base or electron-pair donor is a molecule with one or more high-energy lone pairs of electrons which can be shared with a low-energy vacant orbital in an acceptor molecule to ...

  7. Radical (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radical_(chemistry)

    The hydroxyl radical, Lewis structure shown, contains one unpaired electron. Lewis dot structure of a Hydroxide ion compared to a hydroxyl radical. In chemistry, a radical, also known as a free radical, is an atom, molecule, or ion that has at least one unpaired valence electron.

  8. Nucleotide base - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleotide_base

    Base pairing: Two base pairs are produced by four nucleotide monomers, nucleobases are in blue. Guanine (G) is paired with cytosine (C) via three hydrogen bonds, in red. Adenine (A) is paired with uracil (U) via two hydrogen bonds, in red. Purine nucleobases are fused-ring molecules. Pyrimidine nucleobases are simple ring molecules.

  9. Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brønsted–Lowry_acid...

    The Brønsted–Lowry theory (also called proton theory of acids and bases [1]) is an acid–base reaction theory which was first developed by Johannes Nicolaus Brønsted and Thomas Martin Lowry independently in 1923.
