DNA polymerase (DNAP) is a type of enzyme that is responsible for forming new copies of DNA, in the form of nucleic acid molecules. Nucleic acids are polymers, which are large molecules made up of ...

Biology lectures teach students that when a cell’s replication machinery comes together, DNA polymerase takes off down the double-helix like a car on a highway ...

Mutations in BRCA2—a gene known to repair damaged DNA and suppress tumor formation—can predict an individual's predisposition ...

Forensic DNA profiling uses polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to amplify short tandem repeats (STRs), which are highly variable DNA regions, typically with four repeating bases. This variability helps ...

First-in-class approach to targeting mitochondrial DNA polymerase (POLG) with disease modifying potential across mitochondrial DNA depletion syndromes ...

This unwinding of the helix is caused by an enzyme (helicase enzyme). The enzyme RNA polymerase attaches to the DNA in a non-coding region just before the gene. RNA polymerase moves along the DNA ...

today announced that it will effect a 1-for-50 reverse stock split of its issued and ... Applied DNA Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:APDN) ("Applied DNA" or the "Company"), a leader in polymerase chain ...
