The other entails using a genetic mapping approach to identify small genomic regions that contain functional alleles of a 'to-be-defined' gene that affects the phenotype of interest (for example ...

To generate the hairpin primer, select a 'sense' sequence(s) of 22 nucleotides (nt) in length from the coding sequence of the gene of interest for each clone to be constructed. Only coding ...

CRISPR-Cas9, a gene editing technology known for its user-friendliness, can knock genes in or out. Knocking out a gene involves inserting CRISPR-Cas9 into a cell using a guide RNA that targets the ...

1 The PACE system has two main parts: M13 phages and E. coli cells. The phage contains the gene of interest that scientists want to evolve to perform a specific function. Scientists then delete the ...

A study published in Politics and the Life Sciences reveals that genetic predispositions to political interest manifest more strongly in adolescents from wealthier families. Political engagement ...
