Which is the "A" in the AGCT group of bases for DNA, right?

Yes.

It would've been so cool if this artist did 3 more of these for Guame/Guanine, Cytomander/Cytosine, and Thymilph/Thymine.

Bricks have been verbally shat. I now need to go watch it again to see if I can find some more references like this. I thought that the generals were references to the four elements; fire, earth, water, and air.

According to Wikipedia, they are actually.

Their names are a combination of an elemental and the DNA base. Thymilph = Slyph/Thymine, Adiane = Undine/Adenine, Cytomander = Cytosine/Salamander and Gaume = Guanine/Gnome. Their mechas are also name based on the four guardians of the four directions. Byakou = Byakko, Sayrune = Seiryu, Shuzack = Suzaku and Genber = Genbu.

Basically, the makers of TTGL were insane when it came to names.
