| base pair |
Formed when complementary nucleotides pair by hydrogen bonding. In DNA, the A nucleotide bonds with T, and G bonds with C. Base pairs form the "rungs" of the DNA ladder and the number of base pairs in a strand can be used to describe the length of DNA.

| base pair |
A pair of nitrogenous bases (a purine and a pyrimidine), held together by hydrogen bonds, that form the core of DNA and RNA ie the A:T, G:C and A:U interactions.

| base pair |
(Abbreviated bp.) Two nitrogenous bases paired together in double-stranded DNA by weak bonds; specific pairing of these bases (adenine with thymine and guanine with cytosine) facilitates accurate DNA replication. When quantified (eg, 8 bp), it refers to the physical length of a sequence of nucleotides.

| base pair |
A pair of hydrogen-bonded nitrogenous bases that join the component strands of the DNA double helix. Adenine pairs with thymine, guanine pairs with cytosine.
