    Zia Last week – we talked about PCR and how important it is in the forensic setting. We will finish off talking about PCR‚ and then we will discuss how it can be used. If we go back to the slide of the double stranded DNA‚ and if we take that to a high temperature‚ the two strands separate‚ you then add the primers‚ which interact with ? On the strand‚ synthesis takes place in the 5-3 direction‚ then you end up with 2 molecules identical to the DNA‚ and then you do another round‚ so it’s an

    A DNA strand contains a complete representation of everything about our physiology. It also contains instructions on how to form our body by repeated divisions of a single cell. Each cell needs to know when it should‚ split into two‚ split into different kinds of cell for tissue differentiation. Cells also need to know when to stop growing because the body or organ is mature‚ and when it needs to replace tissue lost by injury. All of that is encoded into one molecule. So in other words the benefit

    DNA molecules are very long. They wrap around proteins and wind tightly‚ forming structures called chromosomes. A human somatic (non-sex) cell has 23 pairs of chromosomes. Twenty-two pairs are autosomes‚ which do not differ between the sexes. The autosomes are numbered from 1 to 22‚ with 1 the largest. The other two chromosomes‚ the X and the Y‚ are sex chromosomes. The Y chromosome bears genes that determine maleness. In humans‚ a female has two X chromosomes and a male has one X and one Y. Charts

    Review 2: Text DNA is a very special and important molecule that is in our life‚ DNA is found in the nucleus. DNA stores the data needed to make poly peptides‚then data in a nucleic acid is transferred to messenger RNA‚ which escapes the nucleus into a protein. According to the DNA and protein article DNA is used in many things but DNA is used to make pol-peptides. They are another word for proteins. When a cell makes a protein the direction are resembled from the part of an DNA. DNA strand and transcript

    DNA Transcription The process of transcription is where a copy of a gene is made within DNA to use as RNA. It is located in the nucleus of eukaryotes and in the nucleoid of prokaryotes. DNA stores information encoded in a genetic code. The code consists of four letters and they are T (thymine)‚ G (guanine)‚ A (Adenine)‚ and C (cytosine). One gene codes for on protein. RNA is a molecule that copies information that is coded in another genetic code. This code also consists of the same four

    DNA synthesis inhibitors Nucleic acid inhibitors are chemicals which inhibit the production of nucleic acids including both DNA and RNA. DNA and RNA inhibitors inhibit enzyme action in DNA replication in the same way as the topoisomerase inhibitors we discussed earlier. Topoisomerase inhibitors (1) (10) are chemicals which interfere with the enzymes that allow DNA strands to separate and to re-join‚ a process that is required for the division of bacteria and without which DNA cannot effectively

DNA is different in all people it is our “genetic blueprint.” DNA is so significant to law enforcement because DNA left at a crime scene can be collected and tested to see if there is a match. It is unique because it ensures accuracy and fairness. The initial use of DNA began in Britain in 1986; the FBI used it for the first time in the United States two years
