DNA polymerase (DNAP) is a type of enzyme that is responsible for forming new copies of DNA, in the form of nucleic acid molecules. Nucleic acids are polymers, which are large molecules made up of ...

Biology lectures teach students that when a cell’s replication machinery comes together, DNA polymerase takes off down the double-helix like a car on a highway ...

Direct chemical synthesis has been adapted to make oligonucleotides of remarkable length, including an 800 nucleotide green ...

However, the behind-the-scenes process of analyzing forensic DNA is far more intricate, requiring careful interpretation of the data. Forensic DNA profiling uses polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to ...

A new blood test is designed to find mold infections deep inside the body, sparing patients from tissue biopsies.

DNA transcription is the vital first step needed for switching on our genes. For a gene to be switched on, it must be acted upon by an enzyme called RNA polymerase. This is a molecular machine which ...

The double helix unwinds, and each strand serves as a template for the synthesis of a new complementary strand. DNA polymerase enzymes facilitate this process, ensuring accurate copying of the genetic ...

Protein synthesis is vital for life, translating genetic information from DNA to functional proteins through transcription ...
