Nicking Enzyme Amplification Reaction (NEAR) is a method for in vitro DNA amplification like the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). NEAR is isothermal, replicating DNA at a constant temperature using a polymerase (and nicking enzyme ) to exponentially amplify the DNA at a temperature range of 55 °C to 59 °C.
A nicking enzyme (or nicking endonuclease) is an enzyme that cuts only one strand of a double-stranded DNA or RNA molecule [1] at a specific recognition nucleotide sequence known as the restriction site. Such enzymes hydrolyze (cut) only one strand of the DNA duplex, to produce DNA molecules that are “nicked”, rather than cleaved. [2] [3]
Nicking can be used to dissipate the energy held up by intersecting states. The nicks allow the DNA to take on a circular shape. [2] The diagram shows the effects of nicks on intersecting DNA forms. A plasmid is tightly wound into a negative supercoil (a). To release the intersecting states, the torsional energy must be released by utilizing ...

H.L. Mencken said the word rubberneck is "almost a complete treatise on American psychology" and "one of the best words ever coined". [4] By 1909, rubbernecking was used to describe the wagons, automobiles and buses used in tours around American cities, [4] and through their Chinatowns. [5]
Arteriovenous nicking, also known as AV nicking, is the phenomenon where, on examination of the eye, a small artery is seen crossing a small vein , which results in the compression of the vein with bulging on either side of the crossing.
Ribonuclease H is a family of endonuclease enzymes with a shared substrate specificity for the RNA strand of RNA-DNA duplexes.By definition, RNases H cleave RNA backbone phosphodiester bonds to leave a 3' hydroxyl and a 5' phosphate group. [7]
The order Piccovirales takes the first part of its name from the Italian word piccolo, meaning small, and the second part is the suffix used for virus orders. The class Quintoviricetes takes the first part of its name from the Galician word quinto , meaning fifth , referring to fifth disease (erythema infectiosum) caused by parvovirus B19, and ...
