Article #1: How “Dead” Bacteria Return to Life Summary The article, How “Dead” Bacteria Return to Life, discusses how bacteria that can be switch to a dormant stage, can survive when no growth is deemed possible. The people working in these findings are international researchers working with Professor Karl Forchhammer and Alexander Klotz at University of Tübingen 's Interfaculty Institute of Microbiology and Infection Medicine. It is stated that the cells stop photosynthesis and begin to…

What is Biology? Biology is the study of all living organisms. This particular type of science has been divided into many specialized fields, one of those fields being genetics. Geneticists use the information they collect to help decide traits that are passed on. Meaning, they study how and why organisms end up with blue eyes color or cancer. What is the role of the genetic material? Genetic material or DNA provides the blueprint for all living organisms. Museum of the Future, (N.D.)…

Ebola virus disease (EVD) causes major illness in humans, which leads to death; this virus is the most lethal virus that has infected primates. The appeared originally in areas of Sudan and Zaire in the year of 1976. It is believed that the natural reservoir of the virus comes from fruit bats. Ebola is part of the Filoviridae family. The virus is mostly transmitted through direct contact with bodily fluids such as saliva and blood. Ebola can be difficult to detect in the beginning due to its…

Importance of studying cancer Cancer is a vastly complex disease exhibiting a plethora of genomic alterations and resulting regulatory failures at the root of its progression. Following the milestone of the Human Genome Project (HGP) era, researchers are now focusing on integrating the rich genome-wide association studies (GWAS), single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data, and identified gene signatures within the in vitro, in vivo and clinical frameworks to further our understanding of the…

Introduction: Caffeine (1, 3, 7-trimethylxanthine) is the most widely consumed psychoactive drug in the world. It has antioxidant and insecticide properties that can affect metabolism and cognition. Men and women aged 35 to 64 years are among the highest consumers of caffeine. Major sources of caffeine were coffee (71%), soft drinks (16%), and tea (12%). Coffee was the major source of caffeine in the diets of adults, whereas soft drinks were the primary source for children and teens [2].…

Possible Modifications of Central Dogma of molecular Biology Introduction The central dogma of molecular biology is describes the transfer of genetic information within a biological system and was first stated by Francis Crick in 1956. The central dogma is the flow of genetic information as ‘’DNA makes the RNA and RNA makes the protein.’’All biological cells with few exceptions in some follow this rule. This flow takes place through three fundamental processes: replication, transcription and…

With the successful results in DNA research, many anticipate the enhancements on human life as it uncovers new potential for solutions for hunger, cures for diseases, and increases on the life span. However, with the rudimentary knowledge and techniques, the consequences of each benefit are unknown, as it is followed by the potential risks for each scenario. Although there is potential for DNA research to innovate the healthcare of the humankind, it is yet too dangerous to apply in our daily…

medicines, says Bing Ren ,Ludwig scientist at the School of medicine The Scientist San Diego in University of California has been discovered the techniques called as “HAPLOSEQ” They are very fast technology and rapid action of an individuals genome. Everyones Genome is not too distant future it has sequenced vice. “That will become the standard of…

It has many functions such as delivering the genome, interactions of virus with cells, and includes protection of the genome from nucleolytic enzymes. The virion extended tail fibres and hits the bacterium and the bacteriophage is triggered and starts hosting the virus. The structure of a T-even bacteriophage consists of a head in an…

to another. After the gene cell's are multiplied the viruses assemble and remove a portion of the host cell's bacterial DNA. Transduction is one of the most common tool used by molecular biologist to introduce a foreign gene into a new host cell's genome. "Specialized Transduction".thefreedictionary.com N.p., 2017. Web. 12 May 2017. While the new tool, transduction, has its benefits in using it, it also has a downfall that makes it dangerous in a sense. The risks for transduction…
