For 10 points, name this nitrogenous base that pairs with guanine and is thus not adenine or thymine.
This molecule was the basis of the first working NMR quantum computer, which was used to solve Deutsch's algorithm. Arab•i•nose is used as the sugar component of the nucleo•side of this molecule in an anti-metabolite chemotherapy used to treat acute leukemias. A kinase named for the nucleo•side of this molecule is the only enzyme that can create all four DNA precursors from deoxy•ribo•nucleo•sides. The tri•phosphate of the nucleo•side of this molecule is an essential cofactor in the biosynthesis of phospho•lipids. (*) Wobble pairing can occur when this base undergoes spontaneous de•amination to form uracil. This pyrimidine is the most common site of DNA methylation, and it forms three hydrogen bonds. For 10 points, name this nitrogenous base that pairs with guanine and is thus not adenine or thymine.
