This image illustrates the chemical structures of the five main nucleobases found in DNA and RNA. The pyrimidines, thymine (DNA), uracil (RNA), and cytosine are shown on top while the purines, adenine ...

To multiply rapidly, cancer cells need to quickly manufacture DNA and RNA, which requires sufficient quantities of purines and pyrimidines. Upon analyzing the levels of 3,000 genes in a T cell ...

have discovered how cellular metabolism fluctuates in response to changes in levels of pyrimidines, metabolites used by cells ...
