What is DNA Packaging in Eukaryotes?
“DNA packaging is a process involving DNA and protein, for arranging DNA on a chromosome and inside a cell nucleus. Let’s find out what the process is and how it […]
How to Design PCR Primers
PCR primers are short single-stranded, specific/ complementary DNA sequences, providing the free 3’ OH end for synthesis during the PCR reaction. Polymerase Chain Reaction- PCR, is an in vitro DNA

Prokaryotic DNA Replication: Initiation, Elongation and Termination
In 1963, J Cairns reported the process of replication in E.coli bacteria by autoradiography. Replication is a process in which a DNA molecule is copied. From the double-stranded DNA, two daughter
