RNA In RNA, the pyrimidine uracil replaces the DNA base thymine, and the pentose ribose is used instead of deoxyribose in DNA. During the synthesis of RNA from a DNA template, adenine in DNA is transcribed into uracil in RNA. Because the pentose ribose is used in RNA instead of deoxyribose, this produces a ribonucleotide having a 2' OH group on the sugar, whereas the 2' OH group is not present in DNA. The important consequence is that RNA is much less stable than DNA. RNA is highly base labile.
