CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Since time immemorial microorganisms have played a significant role in the life of mankind owing to the production of the myriad enzymes and secondary compounds that they synthesize (Demain 1981). These micro organism live in a highly diverse environment ranging from hot springs to deep ocean sediments. In the hyper diverse environment where one can find a specialized and unique biological niche is the intracellular space between cells of higher plants acts as suite and…

In order to evaluate the efficiency of RAPD-PCR fingerprinting for Cajanus cajan L. cultivar, the DNA templates for 7 RAPD primers banding modality were used. The total number of magnified fragments in the Cajanus cajan L. cultivar value of each primer was represented in Table 2. Total of 18 bands were obtained for all primers. The size of the amplified bands was ranged between 1000 bp and 300 bp. Primers OP-A5, OP-B4, OP-B9, OP-C5 and OP-E15 showed at least three specific fragments. Primer…

Methylation is a key biochemical process that is essential for the proper functioning of almost every system in your body. It occurs billions of times per second; it helps repair your DNA on a daily basis; it controls homocysteine (an unhealthy compound that can damage blood vessels); it allows the recycling of molecules necessary for detoxification; and it helps maintain mood and keep inflammation under control. To maintain the proper functioning of methylation you need an optimal level of…

Discuss the similarities and differences in DNA replication between eukaryotes and prokaryotes. Are the changes in eukaryotes adaptations? Explain. Introduction Before we start our discussion, let us refresh our memories; cells are the absolute smallest building blocks of life, each manifesting a sophisticated design. Broadly speaking, the cells are divided in eukaryotes that contain membrane-bound organelles; and prokaryotes that do not (Diffen, 2007)—in short, prokaryotes are both simpler and…

GENE REGULATION: Gene regulation is the method of limiting the genes in the cell’s DNA, which are expressed. It is utilize to form a functional manufacture for an example protein. Various cells in a multi cellular organism might express very difficult group of genes. Although, they consist the similar DNA. Human having over ten thousands of genes in their genome. Cells are expressed the all genes. Even an organism as simple as bacterium must carefully regulate gene expression. Ensuring that the…

enzymatic rate of reaction between starch and amylase? Background Information: Enzymes and the function of enzymes are extremely vital to the human body in regards to how quickly the body can break down the macronutrients of starch, lipids, and proteins. I chose to investigate the breaking down of a complex carbohydrate (starch) because due to their size and structure, starch is broken down more slowly than other substances such as sugars, therefore I was intrigued to investigate the extent to…

Introduction: Pharmacogenomics is the study of how genes affect an individual’s response to drugs. This is a new field that combines pharmacology (the science of drugs) and genomics (the study of genes and their functions) to develop fruitful, safe medicines and doses that will be customized to a human genetic makeup. Now drugs that are available are “one size fits all,” but they do not effective for every person. It is very tough to augur that a person get benefit from drug or not, and…

In modern molecular biology and genetics, the genome is the genetic material of an organism. It consists of DNA (or RNA in RNA viruses). The genome includes both the genes and the non-coding sequences of the DNA/RNA. Understanding Human Genetic Variation Genetics is the scientific study of inherited variation. Human genetics, then, is the scientific study of inherited human variation. We study genetic material due to following reasons; 1. One reason is simply an interest in better understanding…

Water, being the main component of foods, is an important diluent for other water soluble food components such as carbohydrate, protein, fiber, minerals and vitamins. Most fresh foods contain a large amount of water, normally more than 70%, while fresh fruits and vegetables can contain up to 90 to 98% of water (Gowen, 2012). Water in foods can be categorized into two classes, free water and bound water. Free water is freely available for chemical or biological reactions as well as for microbial…

Sonic hedgehog signalling function during nervous system development 13354626 Katie O’Byrne words including references Sonic hedgehog (Shh) is a glycoprotein that is secreted by and diffuses through the developing nervous system. It is a member of the hedgehog family of signaling molecules. The Sonic hedgehog signaling cascade is an integral trafficking system that influences the pattering and growth processes involved in the development of multicellular organisms. Shh is particularly important…
