To write (store) data in this technology, DNA synthesis is required—creating DNA molecules based on the sequences encoding ...

The nucleosides are rich in exposed hydroxyl and amino groups, so scientists use protecting groups to prevent unintended reactions with compounds used in DNA synthesis. Chemicals remove the protecting ...

(As mentioned, DNA synthesis can proceed only in the 5'-to-3' direction.) If there were no way to fill this gap, the DNA molecule would get shorter and shorter with every generation. However ...

Genomics encompasses the study of a complete set of genes, their work process, and their way of interacting with each other and the environment. While it incorporates elements of genetics, the primary ...

However, the conditions for DNA synthesis are rarely ideal, with several obstacles challenging the DNA replication machinery (Branzei & Foiani 2007; Heller & Marians 2006; Lambert, Froget & Carr ...

What if you could take a picture of every gene inside a living organism—not with light, but with DNA itself? Scientists at ...

The “warm” data in the middle, such as your old photos, can take a few seconds to retrieve. Most data is cold, and a lot of ...

So how does protein synthesis make hair? If you've looked at the activity (or even the text version of the activity), you know how a section of DNA instructs a cell how to make a protein.

DNA synthesis, as a strong molecular biology technique, is quickly becoming an essential part of the research workflow and has revolutionized modern biology. De novo gene synthesis is rapidly ...
