Long or large non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are non-protein coding sequence transcripts ! . Long non-coding RNAs are non-protein coding sequence transcripts that contain more than 200 nucleotides. The size of these RNA molecules distinguishes them from small regulatory RNAs such… Read More ›
Have you ever asked yourself the following questions? . Why do we age? When do we start aging? Is there a biomarker for aging? Is there a limit to how old we can grow? . Many theories have been proposed… Read More ›
What is DNA Methylation? . DNA methylation is a biochemical reaction that adds a methyl group to DNA nucleotides. The methylation of DNA has been found to alter the expression of genes in cells during development. BSI can help you… Read More ›
Oligo Designer Oligo Desinger is a comprehensive web-based tool available at Biosynthesis which calculates the various physiochemical properties of oligonucleotides based on their sequence. Listed below are the application user can access from the tool: Calculates the chemical formula Calculates… Read More ›
Knowledge of DNA thermodynamics is crucial for the design of PCR probes or any other oligonucleotide based hybridization probe! . Since DNA hybridization does not strictly follow the Watson-Crick pairing rules DNA hybridization experiments often require optimization. A DNA oligonucleotide… Read More ›
Micro peptides are short, unprocessed peptides with biological functions! . Do noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) code for micro peptides? . Yes, apparently this appears to be the case! . In protein synthesis RNA acts as a template for cellular proteins and… Read More ›
MicroRNAs are small non-coding single-stranded RNA molecules MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding single-stranded RNA molecules consisting of approximately 21 to 22 nucleotides that regulate posttranscriptional gene expression in metazoans and plants. miRNAs are usually generated from noncoding regions of gene… Read More ›
MicroRNA sponges are decoy targets for miRNA seed families ! Ebert, Neilson & Sharp in 2007 report how to make decoy targets for several microRNA seed families, and named them ‘microRNA sponges’. Furthermore the researchers tested their ability to derepress… Read More ›
