DNA - Analysis
Research News and Information
Definition of 'DNA'A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine). |

Citrulline as a marker for chemotherapy induced mucosal barrier injury in pediatric patients.
13 Dec 2009 
BACKGROUND: The currently used National Cancer Institute (NCI) adverse events criteria for mucosal barrier injury (MBI) are insufficient for use in children. We searched for objective, easily measurable indicators for MBI in children with cancer. ... Read more...
25 Oct 2009 The relative location of 2 repetitive DNAs, i.e. ribosomal (rDNA) and a tandemly repeated satellite DNA (satDNA), with respect to the centromere, suggested that B chromosomes in the grasshopper Eyprepocnemis plorans derived intraspecifically from ... Read more...
Chondrogenesis on BMP-6 loaded chitosan scaffolds in stationary and dynamic cultures.
13 Oct 2009 We originally investigated the suitability of chitosan scaffolds loaded with bone morphogenetic protein 6 (BMP-6) in both stationary and dynamic conditions for cartilage tissue engineering. In the first part of the present study, ATDC5 murine ... Read more...
