DNA polymerases are a group of enzymes that are used to make copies of DNA templates, essentially used in DNA replication mechanisms. These enzymes make new copies of DNA from … Read more
DNA fingerprinting or DNA profiling is a process used to determine the nucleotide sequence at a certain part of the DNA that is unique in all human beings. The process … Read more
A vector is a substance, usually a piece of DNA that carries a sequence of DNA or other genetic material and introduces it into a new cell. Vectors act as … Read more
DNA helicases are ubiquitous enzymes found in all domains of life and associated with nucleic acid metabolisms such as DNA replication, transcription, translation, DNA repairing, recombination, ribosome biogenesis, and decay. … Read more
What is Primer? Primer is a short stretch of sequence that serves as an initiation point for DNA synthesis. There can be a set of primers (forward and reverse) with … Read more
What are Plasmids? Plasmids are small circular DNA fragments, double-stranded, self-replicating extra chromosomal structures found in many microorganisms. The term Plasmid was coined by Joshua Lederberg in 1952. Plasmids are … Read more
What is a Nucleotide? A nucleotide is a pentose sugar linked to a nitrogenous base and a phosphate molecule. Nucleotides are the building blocks of DNA. The nitrogenous bases are derived … Read more
DNA stands for Deoxyribonucleic acid, a molecule that contains the instructions an organism needs to develop, live and reproduce. It is a type of nucleic acid and is one of the … Read more
Deoxyribonuclease (DNase) Test Definition Deoxyribonuclease (DNase) Test is a biochemical test performed to differentiate organisms on the basis of their ability to produce the DNase enzyme. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is … Read more
