complementary DNA — Abbreviation: cDNA A DNA strand synthesized in vitro from a mature RNA template using reverse transcriptase. DNA polymerase is then used to create a double stranded molecule. Differs from genomic DNA by the absence of introns. Synonym: copy DNA … Glossary of Biotechnology
double-stranded DNA — Abbreviation: dsDNA Two complementary strands of DNA annealed in the form of a double helix. Synonym: duplex DNA … Glossary of Biotechnology
DNA end — or sticky end refers to the properties of the end of a molecule of DNA or a recombinant DNA molecule. The concept is important in molecular biology, especially in cloning or when subcloning inserts DNA into vector DNA. All the terms can also be… … Wikipedia
DNA replication — DNA replication. The double helix is unwound and each strand acts as a template for the next strand. Bases are matched to synthesize the new partner strands. DNA replication is a biological process that occurs in all living organisms and copies… … Wikipedia
DNA nanoball sequencing — is a high throughput sequencing technology that is used to determine the entire genomic sequence of an organism. The method uses rolling circle replication to amplify small fragments of genomic DNA into DNA nanoballs. Fluorescent probes bind to… … Wikipedia
DNA-encoded chemical library — DNA encoded chemical libraries (DEL) are a new technology for the synthesis and screening of collections of chemical compounds of unprecedented size and quality. DEL represents an advance in medicinal chemistry which bridges the fields of… … Wikipedia
DNA denaturation — DNA denaturation, also called DNA melting, is the process by which double stranded deoxyribonucleic acid unwinds and separates into single stranded strands through the breaking of hydrogen bonding between the bases. Both terms are used to refer… … Wikipedia
