  2. DNA vaccine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_vaccine

    In 2016 a DNA vaccine for the Zika virus began testing in humans at the National Institutes of Health. The study was planned to involve up to 120 subjects aged between 18 and 35. Separately, Inovio Pharmaceuticals and GeneOne Life Science began tests of a different DNA vaccine against Zika in Miami. The NIH vaccine is injected into the upper ...

    In 1995, Robert Conry and colleagues described that a humoral immune response was also elicited after vaccination with an RNA vaccine. [13] [11] While DNA vaccines were more frequently researched in the early years due to their ease of production, low cost, and high stability to degrading enzymes, but sometimes produced low vaccine responses ...

  4. Primary transcript - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_transcript

    To initiate the transcription process in a cell's nucleus, DNA double helices are unwound and hydrogen bonds connecting compatible nucleic acids of DNA are broken to produce two unconnected single DNA strands. [1] One strand of the DNA template is used for transcription of the single-stranded primary transcript mRNA.

  5. Transcriptional regulation - Wikipedia

    The binding sequence for a transcription factor in DNA is usually about 10 or 11 nucleotides long. As summarized in 2009, Vaquerizas et al. indicated there are approximately 1,400 different transcription factors encoded in the human genome by genes that constitute about 6% of all human protein encoding genes. [21]

  8. Transcriptome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcriptome

    The transcriptome encompasses all the ribonucleic acid (RNA) transcripts present in a given organism or experimental sample. [8] RNA is the main carrier of genetic information that is responsible for the process of converting DNA into an organism's phenotype.

    It required complete ablation of existing bone marrow, which is very debilitating. [199] In August two of three subjects of a pilot study were confirmed to have been cured from chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). The therapy used genetically modified T cells to attack cells that expressed the CD19 protein to fight the disease. [26]
