Rediscovering this phenomenon in guanine and thymine allowed Watson and Crick to formulate their base pairing model, and in one example, this state results when a hydrogen moves from the alpha carbon to the oxygen atom and (*) back again.

Most famously exemplified by its keto-enol variety, for 10 points— identify this type of isomerism in which a pair of molecules is readily interconvertible between themselves.
