Guanine is a nucleobase incorporated into biological nucleic acids, such as RNA and DNA. Guanine, a purine derivative, plays a vital role in various biochemical processes, including transcription, replication, and translation. In laboratory applications, guanine serves as useful to investigate protein structure and function. Moreover, it enables researchers to explore the impact of mutations on gene expression.
