The book below (refering to enzymatic reactions) says: "...cooling to 200K reduces its speed by six orders of magnitude.An intermediate with a lifetime of 1ms at room temperature may thus be stable for a few hours at 200K."

The conditions represented in this figure illustrate A: A temperature inversion B: how high levels of ozone affect climate near the ground C: the greenhouse effect D: stratospheric smog
Homeotic genes are genes that regulate the development of anatomical structures in various organisms such as insects, mammals, and plants. Explain what makes homeotic genes to be particularly helpful in mapping a human genome. Using a birth and death of genes paradigm, explain how one copy of an ancestral homeotic gene can give rise to m
Inhibiting the BINDING of Candida Albicans to Monocyte-derived DENDRITIC cells.
This is a totally random question and I am a big noob.
My question is:
If a drug Inhibits the BINDING of Candida Albicans to Monocyte-derived DENDRITIC cells does it mean it protects you against Candida Albicans infections?
There is this medicine that is used to "improve" the immune system. I was reading an article about it, and it said w
The way evo-devo is presented to me in class just makes no sense at all. I would appreciate explanations or either resources to help me figure out evo devo...
So just for reference, I must be able to understand these concepts pastebin.com/Xkg7yKSm
But here are my questions...
Exactly what is a homeotic gene? And why are genes themselve
Successful PCR experimentation depends crucially on primer design and characterisation. Poor primer design can lead to a series of problems that can result in, for example, no amplification, poor amplification or the amplification of multiple targets.
What would be the size in base pairs of the largest and smallest amplicons that would be expected if
Relevant details of the STRs are as follows
TH01
Chromosomal location: 11p15.5 (tyrosine hydroxylase, 1st intron) Repeat motif: TCAT (GenBank top strand) although AATG (bottom strand) often used. Note that variants with a [AATG]nATG[AATG]n structure quite common e.g. [AATG]6ATG[AATG]3 would be 9.3 repeats. Allele range: 3-14
Was Lewis just mapping them on a linkage map based on mutations?
Hi guys,
So I've spent a few days reviewing the genetic tools used in labs, but can't quite find the distinction between a few of the methods.
1. RT-PCR is used to determine if a specific gene is expressed; however, RNA-seq appears to do the same thing. I understand that RT-PCR uses a specific primer and thus tests the expression of one gene. Does RNA
