Since opposite charges attract, the DNA is pulled in toward the histones. A nucleosome is a segment of the DNA wrapped around a core of histones. Here is a view of the double helix -- the subject ...

These groups are called the reading frame. Thus, if the number of bases removed from or inserted into a segment of DNA is not a multiple of three (Figure 4a), the reading frame transcribed to the ...

Setting up the sequencing experiment The Sanger method relies upon a variation of the replication process described above in order to determine the sequence of nucleotides in a segment of DNA.

Introduction: The DNA of a Biotech BoomThe global plasmid DNA manufacturing market is entering a transformative era, driven ...

In these three steps, called one cycle, a new copy of the DNA segment is ready. If there is only one starting copy and each cycle operates with 100% efficiency, making a million copies of the ...

Researchers harness the power of the world’s most advanced supercomputers to simulate the inner workings of cellular ...

Use the tweezers to pull out a segment of DNA from the hepatitis B virus. A subunit vaccine makes use of just a small portion of a pathogen. For a virus, the vaccine can contain just a piece of ...
