Nucleic acids may be labeled at their 3’ end, 5’ end, or throughout the molecule, depending on the desired application. Myriad of enzymatic or chemical methods are utilized to generate nucleic acids ...
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Enzo Biochem, Inc. (NYSE:ENZ), an integrated diagnostics and therapeutics company, today announced the issuance of U.S. Patent No. 10,323,272 entitled Nucleic Acid Probes ...
In this paper we demonstrate that peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) are excellent probes able to detect the W1282X point mutation of the cystic fibrosis (CF) gene when biospecific interaction analysis (BIA ...
Peptide nucleic acid (PNA) is an oligomer, in which the phosphate backbone has been replaced by a pseudopeptide backbone that is meant to mimic DNA. Peptide nucleic acids are of the utmost importance ...
(Nanowerk Spotlight) Epigenetic mechanisms are chemical changes in DNA that do not alter the actual genetic code but can influence the expression of genes, and can be passed on when cells reproduce.
DNA is the poster child for high-specificity binding. As long as their base sequences match, two complementary strands of DNA can navigate through a sea of biomolecules, find each other, and hold fast ...
When used with accompanying nucleic acid detection kits, the ResDetFast™ Residual Nucleic Acid Extraction Kits can meet the requirements of many downstream applications. For example, they’re suitable ...
A few years back, the 50th anniversary of the discovery of the structure of the DNA double helix by biologists James D. Watson and Francis H. C. Crick was grandly celebrated. In fact, it's a double ...
