  2. Chromosomal translocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosomal_translocation

    In genetics, chromosome translocation is a phenomenon that results in unusual rearrangement of chromosomes. This includes balanced and unbalanced translocation, with two main types: reciprocal, and Robertsonian translocation. Reciprocal translocation is a chromosome abnormality caused by exchange of parts between non-homologous chromosomes. Two ...

  3. Cellular model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_model

    A cellular model is a mathematical model of aspects of a biological cell, for the purposes of in silico research. Developing such models has been a task of systems biology and mathematical biology .

  4. Structural variation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_variation

    Genomic structural variation is the variation in structure of an organism's chromosome, such as deletions, duplications, copy-number variants, insertions, inversions and translocations. Originally, a structure variation affects a sequence length about 1kb to 3Mb, which is larger than SNPs and smaller than chromosome abnormality (though the ...

  5. Translocon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translocon

    The translocon (also known as a translocator or translocation channel) is a complex of proteins associated with the translocation of polypeptides across membranes. [1] In eukaryotes the term translocon most commonly refers to the complex that transports nascent polypeptides with a targeting signal sequence into the interior (cisternal or lumenal) space of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) from ...

  6. Holliday junction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holliday_junction

    The two pathways for homologous recombination in eukaryotes, showing the formation and resolution of Holliday junctions. The Holliday junction is a key intermediate in homologous recombination, a biological process that increases genetic diversity by shifting genes between two chromosomes, as well as site-specific recombination events involving integrases.

  7. Chromosomal rearrangement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosomal_rearrangement

    In genetics, a chromosomal rearrangement is a mutation that is a type of chromosome abnormality involving a change in the structure of the native chromosome. [1] Such changes may involve several different classes of events, like deletions, duplications, inversions, and translocations.

  8. Cre-Lox recombination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cre-Lox_recombination

    Cre-Lox recombination is a site-specific recombinase technology, used to carry out deletions, insertions, translocations and inversions at specific sites in the DNA of cells. It allows the DNA modification to be targeted to a specific cell type or be triggered by a specific external stimulus. It is implemented both in eukaryotic and prokaryotic ...

  9. Translation (biology) - Wikipedia

    First, convert each template DNA base to its RNA complement (note that the complement of A is now U), as shown below. Note that the template strand of the DNA is the one the RNA is polymerized against; the other DNA strand would be the same as the RNA, but with thymine instead of uracil. DNA -> RNA A -> U T -> A C -> G G -> C A=T-> A=U
