  2. Lambda phage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambda_phage

    It is not generally appreciated that the 12 bp lambda cohesive ends were the subject of the first direct nucleotide sequencing of a biological DNA. [6] Lambda phage DNA injection into the cell membrane using Mannose PTS permease (a sugar transporting system) as a mechanism of entry into the cytoplasm

  3. 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 ...

  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. Adapter (genetics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adapter_(Genetics)

    This adapter can be used to convert the cohesive end produced by Bam Hl to one produced by Eco Rl or vice versa. One of its applications is ligating cDNA into a plasmid [ 3 ] or other vectors instead of using Terminal deoxynucleotide Transferase enzyme to add poly A to the cDNA fragment.

  6. 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 ...

  7. V (D)J recombination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V(D)J_recombination

    All other gene segments between V and D segments are now deleted from the cell's genome. Primary transcript (unspliced RNA) is generated containing the VDJ region of the heavy chain and both the constant mu and delta chains (C μ and C δ). (i.e. the primary transcript contains the segments: V-D-J-C μ-C δ).

  8. Mobile genetic elements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_genetic_elements

    Simultaneously the donor strand is ligated to the target strand after cleavage leaving a single strand overhang on either end of the target sequence. These sites usually contain a 5 to 9 base pair overhang that can create a cohesive end. [10] Transposase then holds the sequence in a crossed formation and ligates the donor strand to the target ...

  9. BamHI - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BamHI

    BamHI, like other type II restriction endonucleases, often requires divalent metals as cofactors to catalyze DNA cleavage. [2] Two-metal ion mechanism is one of the possible catalytic mechanisms of BamHI since the BamHI crystal structure has the ability to bind two metal ions at the active site, which is suitable for the classical two-metal ion mechanism to proceed.
