The upper most strand is the (coding strand) DNA base sequence (triplet) of the gene codes for synthesis of a particular polypeptide chain. The second strand is the mRNA base sequence (template strand used for copying) codon of the transcribed mRNA. The process for going from the upper stand to the second strand is called Transcription and involves an enzyme called polymerase. The polymerase attaches to the promoter region (start codon) and reads the nucleotide base sequence until it gets to a termination

DNA FINGERPRINTING DNA fingerprinting is a method of identification that compares fragments of deoxyribonucleic acid. It is a technique used to distinguish between individuals of the same species by using only samples of their DNA. It is also called DNA typing. DNA is the genetic material found within the cell nuclei of all living things. In mammals‚ the strands of DNA are grouped into structures called chromosomes. Unless dealing with identical twins‚ the complete DNA of each individual is unique

Cybercrime Law in the Philippines The Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012‚ signed by President Benigno Aquino III on Sep. 12‚ aims to fight online pornography‚ hacking‚ identity theft and spamming following local law enforcement agencies’ complaints over the lack of legal tools to combat cybercrime. However‚ the law came with tougher legal penalties for Internet defamation‚ compared to traditional media. It also allows authorities to collect data from personal user accounts on social media and listen

DNA testing has overthrown the way police collect evidence in a number of criminal cases‚ especially rape and murder and consequently had a large impact on many past cases. However there are many disadvantages to DNA testing‚ such as a challenge of accuracy‚ the costs of DNA testing and the possible misuse of DNA. The prospect of a national DNA database in Australia has been heavily criticised with complaints of invasion of privacy and stigma against those with terminal diseases. Deoxyribonucleic

Background Introduction Biometric Recognition or Biometrics refers to the automatic identification of a person based on intrinsic physical or behavioral traits. It requires physically present at the point of identification. Identification based on biometric techniques lessen the need to remember a password or carry a token like a physical ID. Various biometric traits are being used for real-time recognition‚ the most popular being face‚ iris and fingerprint. However‚ there are biometric systems that are

Definition This page is a resource page on social science research methodology with a special focus on approaches and methods used in various research types in educational technology. See also: Methodology tutorial (a crash course with several modules). Research methodology in educational technology Educational technology uses the whole palette of social science methodology. Very few approaches originated in our field. One recent example is design-based research (DBR). But even DBR uses methods

Data Collection QNT/351 July 10‚ 2014 There are many times when companies have to collect data to come to a conclusion about an issue. The data may be collected from their employers‚ their competition or their consumers. BIMS saw that there had been an average turnover that was larger then what the company had seen in the past. Human Resources decided that they would conduct a survey to see what had changed in the company from the employee’s point of view. They attached

Harvard University Researchers Develop Cloaked DNA Devices for Medicine and Treatments By John Nassivera | Apr 29‚ 2014 05:20 PM EDT Researchers from Harvard University’s Wyss Institute for Biology Inspired Engineering have created a cloaked DNA nanodevice that can avoid defenses in the body’s immune system. The technology’s design was given inspiration from world viruses‚ according to Gizmag. The nanoscale device could be used for diagnosing

DNA Replication DNA replication is a biological process that occurs in all living organisms and copies their DNA. The initiation of DNA replication starts with two steps. First an initiator protein unwinds a short stretch of the DNA double helix. Then a protein called helicase attaches to and breaks apart the hydrogen bonds between the bases on the DNA strands‚ pulling apart the two strands. DNA replication starts when one double-stranded DNA molecule produces two identical copies of the molecule
