... of chromosome 5 in Cri-du-chat syndrome (Lejeune et al., 1963). 1.3 Chromosome banding and nomenclature At first the chromosome pairs were classified into seven different groups (A-G), based on morphology (Patau, 1960). A system of nomenclature was proposed at a conference in Denver (Denver Conferen ...

... sigma70) sigma54 cannot function alone -it requires interaction with another protein NtrC (NRI), which is the gene product of the ntrC gene. Moreover, it is not just the NtrC (NRI) that is required, because NRI has to be activated into NRI -phosphate by becoming phosphorylated. NRI is a DNA binding ...

As expected, the number of RCS signals per window decreased toward the genome average value of 0.21 at the higher cut-off value. At ...

DNA supercoil



DNA supercoiling refers to the over- or under-winding of a DNA strand, and is an expression of the strain on that strand. Supercoiling is important in a number of biological processes, such as compacting DNA. Additionally, certain enzymes such as topoisomerases are able to change DNA topology to facilitate functions such as DNA replication or transcription. Mathematical expressions are used to describe supercoiling by comparing different coiled states to relaxed B-form DNA.As a general rule, the DNA of most organisms is negatively supercoiled.
