Thymine
Thymine is one of the four nitrogenous bases, along with adenine, cytosine, guanine, and uracil,
found in DNA and RNA. It is a pyrmidine base, meaning it consists of one six-member ring.
Thymine is only found in DNA. In RNA, uracil takes the place of thymine. Thymine always pairs
up with adenine, forming two hydrogen bonds.
