I remember reading that scientist were making cells (I assume bacteria), that used differently oriented proteins to create a whole new class of life. Because apparently right and left aligned prote…

The following protocol is a slight modification of the “Quick and Dirty” transformation protocol described by Amberg et al. (2005). Modifications to this method can increase its efficiency by several orders of magnitude (Gietz and Schiestl, 2007), which would be required if linear pieces of DNA were being used to tranform yeast.

When the virus integrates its DNA with the hosts and enters the lytic pathway, do the viral proteins that produced destroy the cells DNA? Do they deactivate it? Also does the cell function in the s…

Eukaryotic Gene RegulationRegulation overviewAs was previously noted, regulation is all about decision making. Gene regulation, as a general topic, is related to making decisions about the functional expression of genetic material. Whether the final product is an RNA species or a protein, the production of the final expressed product requires processes that take multiple steps.

What is the typical effect of enzyme immobilization on the kinetic parameters of an enzyme's activity? Can one assume that they'd stay approximately the same or is there a gross change? Any way to

Kimura's approximation for the probability of fixation of a mutation under selection finds recurrent use in population genetics models till date. I am trying to understand the mathematical basis of…
