Title: Deoxy,T Vs Dioxy,U
Post by: 2810713 on January 23, 2006, 11:52:23 AM
What are advantages of deoxy nature of DNA over RNA and Thymine over uracil???
DeoxyVsDioxy
IF its say hydrolysis... why is it harmful... it may be due to blokage of enzyme activity as no free -OH gr is present in hydrolysed form, but RNAs have enzymes working on them that require presence of free -OH group [primase??? ], so the frequency of hydrolysis in RNA should be very less.So how come it is a deciding factor???
