The enzyme responsible for covalently linking nucleotides is DNA ligase. This article breaks down DNA ligase and its role in DNA replication, maintenance of genetic information, and epigenetic modifications.
Exploring the Genetic Code: How Many Nucleotides Make Up a Codon?
This article explores the fundamental building blocks of genetics: codons. It explains the composition and length of codons and discusses their importance for gene expression, regulation, and medical research.
Exploring Two Key Differences Between RNA and DNA: Importance in Genetics
RNA and DNA are both important molecules in genetics. In this article, we explore two main ways RNA differs from DNA and their importance in genetics. RNA plays a key role in gene expression and protein synthesis that differs from DNA’s role.
Exploring Nucleotides: The Building Blocks of DNA and RNA
This article explores the importance of nucleotides in DNA and RNA and explains the different types of nucleotides, their structure, and their crucial role in DNA replication and protein synthesis.
