For replicating DNA, we are all different. A new study has found that replication machinery -- including where the origin points are and in what order DNA segments get copied--varies from person ...
Marching to our own sequence: DNA replication insight Date: November 13, 2014 Source: Harvard Medical School Summary: Imagine being asked to copy a library of books. Doing it yourself would take ...
D) The electropherogram results show peaks representing the color and signal intensity of each DNA band. From these data, the sequence of the newly synthesized DNA strand is determined, as shown ...
DNA 'replication fork' reconstituted for the first time Date: July 9, 2014 Source: Rockefeller University Summary: While scientists have had an idea of the molecular tools that cells use to ...
WIKIMEDIA COMMONS, MIKE AND AMANDA KNOWLES Biological systems are complicated. Though DNA may carry a simple sequence of base pairs, once this information is transcribed into RNA and translated into ...
To date, people have encoded information into DNA the same way nature has, by linking the four nucleotide bases comprising DNA—A, T, C, and G—into a particular genetic sequence.
RNA-binding proteins use a dual binding mechanism involving zinc finger (ZnF) domains and intrinsically disordered regions ...
A new study on genetic sequencing finds that DNA replication is not as accurate as was previously thought, which could impact a range of fields, from medicine to the study of evolution. DNA ...
Many regions help control when and where genes are active. A genetic variant is a change in the DNA sequence. When a variant occurs in reproductive cells, it can be passed from parent to child and ...
