  2. Trans-splicing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans-splicing

    Trans-splicing is a special form of RNA processing where exons from two different primary RNA transcripts are joined end to end and ligated.It is usually found in eukaryotes and mediated by the spliceosome, although some bacteria and archaea also have "half-genes" for tRNAs.

  3. Genetic engineering techniques - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_engineering_techniques

    The bacteria will attach to many of the plant cells exposed by the cuts. The bacteria uses conjugation to transfer a DNA segment called T-DNA from its plasmid into the plant. The transferred DNA is piloted to the plant cell nucleus and integrated into the host plants genomic DNA.The plasmid T-DNA is integrated semi-randomly into the genome of ...

  4. Genetically modified tomato - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetically_modified_tomato

    Genetically modified tomato. A genetically modified tomato, or transgenic tomato, is a tomato that has had its genes modified, using genetic engineering. The first trial genetically modified food was a tomato engineered to have a longer shelf life (the Flavr Savr), which was on the market briefly beginning on May 21, 1994. [1]

  5. Genetically modified crops - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetically_modified_crops

    Genetically modified crops (GM crops) are plants used in agriculture, the DNA of which has been modified using genetic engineering methods. Plant genomes can be engineered by physical methods or by use of Agrobacterium for the delivery of sequences hosted in T-DNA binary vectors. In most cases, the aim is to introduce a new trait to the plant ...

    Some examples of bacteria where this type of regulation predominates are Neisseria, Psychrobacter and Pasteurellaceae, as well as the majority of bacteria in the Firmicutes phylum. [7] [6] - In factor-dependent termination, which is a protein factor complex containing Rho factor, is bound to a segment from the RNA chain transcript. The Rho ...

  7. Circular RNA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_RNA

    Circular RNA. B.4) lariat-driven circularization (exon skipping). In molecular biology, circular RNA (or circRNA) is a type of single-stranded RNA which, unlike linear RNA, forms a covalently closed continuous loop. In circular RNA, the 3' and 5' ends normally present in an RNA molecule have been joined together.

  8. Transcriptional regulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcriptional_regulation

    transcriptional regulation – controlling the rate of gene transcription for example by helping or hindering RNA polymerase binding to DNA. transcription – the process of making RNA from a DNA template by RNA polymerase. transcription factor – a substance, such as a protein, that contributes to the cause of a specific biochemical reaction ...

  9. Translation (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_(biology)

    Genetics. In biology, translation is the process in living cells in which proteins are produced using RNA molecules as templates. The generated protein is a sequence of amino acids. This sequence is determined by the sequence of nucleotides in the RNA. The nucleotides are considered three at a time.
