  2. Nucleic acid sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleic_acid_sequence

    Given the two 10-nucleotide sequences, line them up and compare the differences between them. Calculate the percent difference by taking the number of differences between the DNA bases divided by the total number of nucleotides. In this case there are three differences in the 10 nucleotide sequence. Thus there is a 30% difference.

  3. DNA sequencing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_sequencing

    DNA polymerase catalysis and specific nucleotide labeling, both of which figure prominently in current sequencing schemes, were used to sequence the cohesive ends of lambda phage DNA. [ 34 ] [ 35 ] [ 36 ] Between 1970 and 1973, Wu, R Padmanabhan and colleagues demonstrated that this method can be employed to determine any DNA sequence using ...

  4. Central dogma of molecular biology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_dogma_of_molecular...

    Information here means the precise determination of sequence, either of bases in the nucleic acid or of amino acid residues in the protein. He re-stated it in a Nature paper published in 1970: "The central dogma of molecular biology deals with the detailed residue -by-residue transfer of sequential information .

  5. Direct repeat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_repeat

    Direct repeats are a type of genetic sequence that consists of two or more repeats of a specific sequence. [1] In other words, the direct repeats are nucleotide sequences present in multiple copies in the genome. Generally, a direct repeat occurs when a sequence is repeated with the same pattern downstream. [1]

  6. CpG site - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CpG_site

    Given the frequency of GC two-nucleotide sequences, the number of CpG dinucleotides is much lower than would be expected. [14] A 2002 study revised the rules of CpG island prediction to exclude other GC-rich genomic sequences such as Alu repeats. Based on an extensive search on the complete sequences of human chromosomes 21 and 22, DNA regions ...

  7. dnaQ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DnaQ

    The complete nucleotide sequence of dnaQ of S. typhimurium was determined. [16] The DNA polymerase from the early diverging bacterial species, Buchnera aphidicola, was also sequenced. In this case, the DNA polymerase encoded by the DNA III (polC) gene contains both DNA polymerase and 3’ to 5’ exonuclease domains.

  8. Base pair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_pair

    The following DNA sequences illustrate pair double-stranded patterns. By convention, the top strand is written from the 5′-end to the 3′-end; thus, the bottom strand is written 3′ to 5′. A base-paired DNA sequence: ATCGATTGAGCTCTAGCG TAGCTAACTCGAGATCGC The corresponding RNA sequence, in which uracil is substituted for thymine in the RNA ...

  9. Wobble base pair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wobble_base_pair

    Wobble base pairs for inosine and guanine. A wobble base pair is a pairing between two nucleotides in RNA molecules that does not follow Watson-Crick base pair rules. [1] The four main wobble base pairs are guanine-uracil (G-U), hypoxanthine-uracil (I-U), hypoxanthine-adenine (I-A), and hypoxanthine-cytosine (I-C).
