Sribas Chowdhury, Adamas University, Kolkata With scientific developments in genetics booming over a couple of decades, the identification and assay of genes in different organisms have become a topic of great interest. A lot of new methods have been developed to understand the genetic traits of various physiological phenomena. One such phenomenon is the resistance […]
Saptaparna Pal, Amity University Kolkata Currently, in our world, there are about 10 trillion gigabytes of digital data, and each day human produces photos, emails, tweets, and other digital files that add on to another 2-4 million gigabytes of data. A massive amount of this data was stored in enormous facilities called exabyte data centers. […]
Husna, Amity University Kolkata RNA determines the identity of the cell and directs the responses to the cellular needs of the body. These diverse cellular functions are possible due to the vast chemical composition of RNA which comprises four ribonucleotides (A, C, G, and U) and more than 140 modified ribonucleotides. Several years of RNA […]
Soumya Shraddhya Paul, Amity University, Noida The DNA structure, twist, and properties depend on the external stimuli. The common structure of the DNA is helical, and it tends to maintain this helicity in order to remain in its stable form. But through recent studies scientists are trying to show how helicity can be influenced or […]
Nandini Pharasi, Jaypee Institute of Information Technology Co-relation between life forms: Association between two different life forms that eat from the same bowl is known as commensalism. Commensalism is a relationship between species in which one benefits while the other is neither affected nor harmed. These bacteria do not harm them but depend on them […]
Avani Dave, Jai Hind College Breast cancer gene BRCA1 has marked its presence as a protein mostly known for being an active contributor in the hereditary associated breast cancer. Apart from being the villain, BRCA1 also plays an indispensable role in the cellular machinery that works towards repairing the double-strand DNA breakage. Recently, researchers from […]
Soumya Shraddhya Paul, Amity University Noida Epigenetic changes in simple terms refer to an external stimulus that affects the way the gene works or functions. Epigenetic changes are different from genetic changes as these are reversible and do not alter the DNA sequences, it only alters how the body is going to read the DNA […]
Sayak Banerjee, Amity University Kolkata Hormones vs ageing: Generally, it is observed that men have a shorter life span than women and it has been found that the reason behind this is hormones, but now this could be altered resulting in an increased lifespan. A research team from the Department of Anatomy of the University […]
Saakshi Bangera, DY Patil School of Biotechnology and Bioinformatics Chemical modifications of nucleotide bases of RNA are important regulators of RNA metabolism. Detecting such modifications may revolutionize transcriptomics, but is equally challenging to develop. RNA profiling concerning the transcriptome is quite difficult due to the lack of effective technology. A solid detection and analysis technique […]
Shivani Vaja, former student President Science College DNA Sequencing is the systematic process of determining, performing, and analyzing the sequence of nucleotides ( the order of adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine nucleotides ) in DNA. The technique of resolving DNA sequence was known as Sanger sequencing. This methodology included the separation of fluorescently labeled DNA […]
