  2. Sticky and blunt ends - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sticky_and_blunt_ends

    The simplest DNA end of a double stranded molecule is called a blunt end. Blunt ends are also known as non-cohesive ends. In a blunt-ended molecule, both strands terminate in a base pair. Blunt ends are not always desired in biotechnology since when using a DNA ligase to join two molecules into one, the yield is significantly lower with blunt ...

  3. Lambda phage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambda_phage

    Lambda phage is a non-contractile tailed phage, meaning during an infection event it cannot 'force' its DNA through a bacterial cell membrane. It must instead use an existing pathway to invade the host cell, having evolved the tip of its tail to interact with a specific pore to allow entry of its DNA to the hosts.

  4. Cosmid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmid

    Those cells which did not take up the cosmid would be unable to grow. [3] Unlike plasmids, they can also be packaged in vitro into phage capsids, a step which requires cohesive ends, also known as cos sites also used in cloning with a lambda phage as a vector, however nearly all the lambda genes have been deleted with the exception of the cos ...

  5. Cell-based models - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell-based_models

    Cell-based models are mathematical models that represent biological cells as discrete entities. Within the field of computational biology they are often simply called agent-based models [1] of which they are a specific application and they are used for simulating the biomechanics of multicellular structures such as tissues. to study the influence of these behaviors on how tissues are organised ...

  6. Callback (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Callback_(computer_programming)

    The callback technology is implemented differently by programming language. In assembly, C, C++, Pascal, Modula2 and other languages, a callback function is stored internally as a function pointer. Using the same storage allows different languages to directly share callbacks without a design-time or runtime interoperability layer.

  7. Function composition (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_composition...

    The first line describes the type of (.) - it takes a pair of functions, f, g and returns a function (the lambda expression on the second line). Note that Haskell doesn't require specification of the exact input and output types of f and g; the a, b, c, and x are placeholders; only the relation between f , g matters (f must accept what g returns).

  8. Ligation (molecular biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ligation_(molecular_biology)

    EcoRI for example generates an AATT end, and since A and T have lower melting temperature than C and G, its melting temperature T m is low at around 6 ° C. [21] For most restriction enzymes, the overhangs generated have a T m that is around 15 ° C. [20] For practical purposes, sticky end ligations are performed at 12-16 ° C, or at room ...

  9. Integration host factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integration_host_factor

    When the Integration Host Factor was first discovered, it was only known for the site-specific recombination of bacteriophage. [4] This is all we knew for a while but through another article, we were able to find that with further research, IHF plays a key role in the scope of physiological processes of E. Coli, including site-specific recombination activities, phage packaging and partitioning ...
