Post Views: 698 In 1953, an important discovery of the double helix structure of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) by James Watson, Rosalind Franklin and Francis Crick made huge waves in medical science. The study of DNA structure has since inspired many advancements in genetic science, especially in the field of molecular diagnostics or testing. Over two…
Post Views: 1,791 Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins present in nearly all plants and a few animals as well. The word Lectins originated from a Latin word called ‘Legree,’ which means to select or pick. Lectins do not create any antigenic stimulation inside the immune system, but they do have the necessary capacity to bind analogously…
Post Views: 2,923 Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a molecule that transfers genetic information in humans and almost all other organisms. Its formulation allows the transfer of genes to an organism’s descendants. Scientists can research and manipulate organisms at a molecular level using DNA. Therefore, the molecular biology approach and applications are at the leading edge…
