Failure of a gene-reading quality-control mechanism called Integrator leaves cells littered with abnormal RNA strands that ...

mRNA is created during transcription. During the transcription process, a single strand of DNA is decoded by RNA polymerase, and mRNA is synthesized. Physically, mRNA is a strand of nucleotides ...

Comparison of a single-stranded RNA and a double-stranded DNA with their corresponding nucleobases (Image: Wikimedia Commons, CC SA 3.0) The central dogma of molecular biology describes the flow of ...

The two main types of nucleic acids are deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA). TComparison of a single-stranded RNA and a double-stranded DNA with their corresponding nucleobases ...

This hybrid is recognized by Rnase H, which degrades the RNA strand. The other primer anneals to the newly synthesized DNA strand and RT creates a ds DNA molecule with the T7 RNA polymerase which ...
