Siblingship testing from DNA Bioscience can help two individuals verify whether they are full or half siblings. This type of test is often performed when an alleged father is unavailable for paternity testing and alleged siblings want to know if they have one or both parents in common.
DNA Bioscience performs two types of siblingship tests:
Half […]
When the maternity of a child is in question, DNA Bioscience’s maternity test can provide the definitive answers a family needs.
Maternity testing is useful in a number of different situations, including:
When an adopted child and an adoptive mother are reunited after years of separation and would like to confirm their biological relationship
When a mother who […]
DNA Bioscience offers a variety of DNA testing services to assist individuals who need to provide evidence of biological relationships for immigration purposes.
We have a special Immigration Department that is dedicated to working with immigration solicitors and their clients. Through genetic testing, we can provide the proof of biological relationship needed to satisfy the requirements […]
Paternity DNA testing from DNA Bioscience can help you finally put to rest any doubts about the paternity of your child.
A paternity test works by comparing a child’s DNA profile with that of an alleged father (and often the mother as well). Because a child inherits half of his or her DNA from each biological […]
Funded by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI), myDNAi was designed to help educators make the most of the content on the companion site, DNA Interactive. Released in November 2003, myDNAi is a package of classroom resources and tools that allow teachers to create their own materials. Working closely with expert Teacher Fellows, we developed […]
Many RNAs are involved in modifying other RNAs. Introns are spliced out of pre-mRNA by spliceosomes, which contain several small nuclear RNAs (snRNA). RNA can also be altered by having its nucleotides modified to other nucleotides than A, C, G and U. In eukaryotes, modifications of RNA nucleotides are generally directed by small nucleolar RNAs […]
This chapter will explore the structure of nucleic acids and proteins.DNA StructureDNA is composed of several different subunits. The backbone of the molecule is made of a sugar called deoxyribose. The deoxyribose is held together by phosphate groups. Deoxyribose also forms bonds with the four bases, adenine (A), cytosine ( C), thymine (T) and guanine […]
DNA REPLICATION
Replication is the process where DNA makes a copy of itself. Why does DNA need to copy? Simple: Cells divide for an organism to grow or reproduce, every new cell needs a copy of the DNA or instructions to know how to be a cell. DNA replicates right before a cell divides.
DNA replication is […]
DNA is sometimes called “the blueprint of life” because it contains the code, or instructions for building and organism and ensuring that organism ********s correctly. Just like a builder uses a blueprint to build a house, DNA is used as the blueprint, or plans, for the entire organism.
It is the chemical component of chromosomes, which […]
RNA polymerase (RNAP or RNApol) is an enzyme that makes an RNA copy of a DNA or RNA template. In cells, RNAP is needed for constructing RNA chains from DNA genes, a process called transcription. RNA polymerase enzymes are essential to life and are found in all organisms and many viruses. In chemical terms, RNAP […]
