- Company Profile:
Determination of the order of nucleotides (base sequences) in a DNA or RNA molecule or the order of amino acids in a protein..
Industry:Biology
The group of related organisms used in constructing a genetic map..
Industry:Biology
DNA molecule originating from a virus, a plasmid, or the cell of a higher organism into which another DNA fragment of appropriate size can be integrated without loss of the vector's capacity for self-replication; vectors introduce foreign DNA into host cells, where the DNA can be reproduced in large quantities. Examples are plasmids, cosmids, and yeast artificial chromosomes; vectors are often recombinant molecules containing DNA sequences from several sources..
Industry:Biology
The instrumentation and procedures used to determine the order of nucleotides in DNA..
Industry:Biology
An instrument used to identify chemicals in a substance by their mass and charge..
Industry:Biology
The study of human genetics by comparisons with model organisms such as mice, the fruit fly, and the bacterium E. coli..
Industry:Biology
A stage in mitosis or meiosis during which the chromosomes are aligned along the equatorial plane of the cell..
Industry:Biology
Nucleic acid base sequence that can form a double-stranded structure with another DNA fragment by following base-pairing rules (A pairs with T and C with G). The complementary sequence to GTAC for example, is CATG..
Industry:Biology
A change in the genetic structure that is neither inherited nor passed to offspring. Also called acquired mutations.
See also: germ line genetic mutation.
