Tautomeric and anionic Watson-Crick-like mismatches have important roles in replication and translation errors through mechanisms that are not fully understood. Here, using NMR relaxation dispersion, we resolve a sequence-dependent kinetic network connecting G•T/U wobbles with three distinct Watson-Crick mismatches: two rapidly exchanging tautomeric species (G<sup>enol</sup>•T/UG•T<sup>enol</sup>/U<sup>enol</sup>; population less than 0.4%) and one anionic species (G•T<sup>-</sup>/U<sup>-</sup>; ...[more]
