PPT-EPIGENOMICS: Deciphering the other genetic code

Genomics 201516 Silvia del Burgo Introduction Same genome for all cells that arise from single fertilized egg Identity Epigenomic signatures Epigenomics study of chemical changes in DNA and histones without altering DNA sequence that are inheritable and involved in regulating gene expression development tissue differentiation and suppression of TE . Creating a Miniature Factory. Expanding the Genetic Code. At the Scripps Institute in California, scientists have engineered a bacterium with an expanded genetic code.. In addition to A, T, G, and C, they have . tree. The . geneticists studying the alien organisms have deciphered their genetic code. For familiarity, they have used A, C, G, and T to indicate the bases in this code..  . A comparable genetic sequence in each alien has been identified in the genes that code for eye growth. This genetic sequence has allowed the aliens to be divided into six groups, with the single-tail, three-eye group split in half. The geneticists also studied several outgroup species (not shown) to compile a likely ancestral DNA sequence. From this information, they have constructed four possible phylogenetic trees.. What is a sonnet?. A sonnet is a 14 lined poem.. It means “little song.”. It has a strict rhyme scheme.. It uses Iambic Pentameter.. 10 syllables per line.. 5 beats per line.. There are two types….

The human body is composed up of cells , each one specializing a particular function like sensing light, smelling . SUB: . BOTANY(HONS). SEM. : IV. PAPER:C8T(UNIT 3). TOPICS: CENTRAL DOGMA AND GENETIC . CODE. Dr. . Arati. . Malakar. The central dogma of molecular biology describes the two-step process, transcription and translation, by which the information in genes flows into proteins: DNA → RNA → protein. Transcription is the synthesis of an RNA copy of a segment of DNA. RNA is synthesized by the enzyme RNA polymerase. S P T SCIENCE COLLEGE. (SHRI GOVIND GURU UNIVERSITY). Genetic code is the term . used . for the way . . the four bases of DNA--the A, C, G, and Ts--are . strung/arranged . together in a way that the cellular machinery, the ribosome, can read them and turn them into a protein.
