Term Name:	uracil
Synonyms:	2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione, 2,4-Dioxopyrimidine, 2,4-Pyrimidinedione, pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione, U, Ura, URACIL, Urazil
Definition:	A common and naturally occurring pyrimidine nucleobase in which the pyrimidine ring is substituted with two oxo groups at positions 2 and 4. Found in RNA, it base pairs with adenine and replaces thymine during DNA transcription.
