The study of genes, their resulting proteins, and the role played by the proteins the body's biochemical processes..
Industry:Biology
Nucleic acid that has a sequence exactly opposite to an mRNA molecule made by the body; binds to the mRNA molecule to prevent a protein from being made.
See also: transcription.
Industry:Biology
Mature male or female reproductive cell (sperm or ovum) with a haploid set of chromosomes (23 for humans)..
Industry:Biology
Programmed cell death, the body's normal method of disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells.
See also: cell.
Industry:Biology
A technique used to identify genes, usually those that are associated with diseases, based on their location on a chromosome..
Industry:Biology
Individual primary recombinant clones (hosted in phage, cosmid, YAC, or other vector) that are placed in two-dimensional arrays in microtiter dishes. Each primary clone can be identified by the identity of the plate and the clone location (row and column) on that plate. Arrayed libraries of clones can be used for many applications, including screening for a specific gene or genomic region of interest.

Industry:Biology
A method of studying chromosomes in the interphase stage of the cell cycle..
Industry:Biology
The fundamental physical and functional unit of heredity. A gene is an ordered sequence of nucleotides located in a particular position on a particular chromosome that encodes a specific functional product (i.e., a protein or RNA molecule).
