HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is a retrovirus that attacks the immune system, specifically CD4 cells (T cells), weakening the body’s ability to fight infections and […]
COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. It primarily spreads through respiratory droplets, leading to symptoms ranging from mild respiratory issues […]
Pyrimidines are nitrogenous organic compounds with a single-ring structure. They are fundamental building blocks in DNA and RNA, with cytosine, thymine (found in DNA), and […]
Purines are nitrogenous organic compounds that consist of a double-ring structure. They are essential components of DNA and RNA and play crucial roles in cellular […]
Purine and pyrimidine are two types of nitrogenous organic compounds. Purines, like adenine and guanine, have a double-ring structure and are found in DNA, RNA, […]
Purine and Pyrimidine metabolism are essential biochemical pathways responsible for the synthesis and degradation of purine and pyrimidine nucleotides. Purines (like adenine and guanine) and […]
Taq DNA polymerase is a heat-resistant enzyme derived from the bacterium Thermus aquaticus. It is widely used in the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) due to […]
Southern blotting is a molecular biology technique used to detect specific DNA sequences in a sample. It involves digesting DNA, electrophoresis, transferring the DNA to […]
