The modified triester approach has been further improved and refined to the synthesis of defined sequences of deoxyribo-oligonucleotides. Improvements include arylsulfonyltetrazoles as faster and milder condensing agents, benzenesulfonic acid to avoid depurination during deblocking of trityl protecting groups and improved chromatographic procedures for purification of triester intermediates and...

conclusions consequently, small diameter scnt interaction with nucleic acid bases is noncovalent. also, the results revealed that small diameter scnt interaction especially scnt (4, 4) with nucleic acid bases can be useful in practical application area of biomedical fields such detection and drug delivery. objectives hence, the quantum mechanics (qm) method based on ab initio was used for this ...

UNLABELLED Mango (>Mangifera indica) belonging to Anacardiaceae family is a fruit that grows in tropical regions. It is considered as the King of fruits. The present work was taken up to identify a tool in identifying the mango species at the molecular level. The chloroplast trnL-F region was amplified from extracted total genomic DNA using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequenced. Seq...

The requirement for net synthesis of deoxyribonucleic acid in a growing tissue, normal or malignant, is well established. The synthetic pathways of the purine and pyrimidine moieties of nucleic acids have been largely elucidated, but most of the available data are concerned with ribonucleic acid synthesis. The metabolic origin of the deoxyribose moiety of DNA1 is, however, not clearly establish...

introduction: p. aeruginosa is an important multi-drug resistant (mdr) opportunistic pathogen in hospital-acquired infections. several methods based on dna analysis have been used for investigating genetic diversity of p. aeruginosa isolates. among them, rep‑pcr typing has been introduced as a rapid, low cost method with high discriminatory power. the aims of this study were to investigate geno...

conclusions nucleic acid amplification tests (naats) are very appropriate in detection of infected individuals. detection techniques such as naats are independent of bacterial viability, and have a potential to limit false negative samples, therefore, in our country, the application of different laboratory diagnosis methods including naats with culture as gold standard for determination antimic...

Deoxyribo Nucleic Acid (DNA) computing is a new method of simulating the bimolecular structure of DNA and computing by means of molecular biology. DNA cryptography is a new field which has been explored worldwide. The concept of using DNA computing in the fields of cryptography and steganography has been identified as a possible technology, which may bring forward a new hope for unbreakable alg...

To overcome the issue of interferences by salt and compactness in release of bacterial cell required for lysis, method described by Yeates et al. (1998), was optimized for isolation of genomic material (Deoxyribo Nucleic Acid, DNA) from soil microbial community by addition of Al(NH4)SO4. Very low total viable count was observed in the samples tested and hence use of higher amount of soil is req...

background: we examined a molecular method with a single-pcr for amplification of a part of cp5 gene enabling us to differen­tiate the pathogenic species, entamoeba histolytica , from the non-pathogenic species, e. dispar . methods: we developed a single pcr method for this purpose.  after investigation of genbank, primer pairs were de­signed from highly conserved regions of cysteine proteinase...
