A) DNA polymerase binds to a single-stranded DNA template (blue) and synthesizes a complementary strand of DNA (red). B) When DNA polymerase randomly incorporates a fluorescently labeled ddNTP ...

Determining the number of copies of a double stranded DNA template (be it genomic DNA, plasmid or an amplified fragment) is essential for many genetic quantification applications in research and ...

A Sanger sequencing reaction is run with a single primer. The following table lists the recommended amount of DNA template and primer for optimal Sanger sequencing results. Note: for plasmid DNA the ...

Every day, billions of cells in your body divide, helping to replace old and injured cells with new ones. And each time this ...

DNA replication is the process by which the DNA molecule makes an exact copy of itself during cell division. The double helix unwinds, and each strand serves as a template for the synthesis of a new ...

Scientists use RNA origami to fold biomolecules into nanotubes, forming cytoskeleton-like structures, advancing synthetic biology toward artificial cells.
