The primers used in this technique are capable of annealing perfectly to their target sequences (the adapter and restriction sites) as well as a small number of nucleotides adjacent to the restriction sites. The first step in AFLP involves restriction digestion of genomic DNA (about 500 ng) ...
What is a gene in its simplest form?Genetics:Genetics, a specific area of study in biology, focuses on genetic expression and inheritance, as well as the chemical makeup of genetic material. In a cell, genes are contained within chromosomes. In eukaryotic cells, like those found in humans,...
One little fun fact, you can actually use Hedgehog mushrooms as a substitute for Chanterelle because their taste is quite similar. These mushrooms are also very nutritional as they contain lots of vitamin D, potassium, iron. And most importantly, Hedgehog mushrooms provide anti-inflammation and ...
A new study has for the first time identified regions of the genome associated with left-handedness in the general population and linked their effects with brain architecture. Of the four genetic regions they identified, three of these were associated with proteins involved in brain development and...
In fact, current research has focused on the identification and characterization of supramolecular structures presented in the ECM (such as the proteins laminin, and fibronectin) to modulate and regulate signals associated with neurogenesis in a manner dependent on their specificity, concentration, and ...
Cysteine oxidation is the main site of proteins on which ROS can act and induce signals by diverse range of posttranslational modifications [180]. The oxidant H2O2 interacts, for example, with Cys thiolate anions (Cys–S-) at physiological pH and oxidizes them to their sulfenic form (Cys–SOH...
It helps convey nutrition, hormones and proteins around the body, and messages to the nervous system. In fact, a US study found that men who drank six 250ml glasses of water a day halved their risk of bladder cancer, while other research found it also lowers women’s risk of a heart ...
sub-extremal case. This fails in the super-charged casewhere arbitrary high energy is allowed and attained by a circular geodesic. As mentioned in [6], these facts show that these Riemannian solutions present substantial differences in their dynamics, when compared to their usual relativistic ...
Within cells, proteins seldom act as single isolated species to perform their functions. It has been observed that proteins involved in the same cellular processes often interact with each other [1]. Protein-protein interactions are thus fundamental to almost all biological processes [2]. As advanc...
The interaction of π-resonance structures plays an essential role in the stability of biological macromolecules such as proteins and DNA. The main features of π-resonance structures are their relatively large sizes, the rigidity of π-orbitals, quadrupole momentum, and dispersion. Among the most ...
