    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfection

    Transfection is the process of deliberately introducing naked or purified nucleic acids into eukaryotic cells. [1] [2] It may also refer to other methods and cell types, although other terms are often preferred: "transformation" is typically used to describe non-viral DNA transfer in bacteria and non-animal eukaryotic cells, including plant cells.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pathogen_reduction_using...

    Pathogen reduction using riboflavin and UV light is a method by which infectious pathogens in blood for transfusion are inactivated by adding riboflavin and irradiating with UV light. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] This method reduces the infectious levels of disease-causing agents that may be found in donated blood components, while still maintaining good ...

    transcription – the process of making RNA from a DNA template by RNA polymerase; transcription factor – a substance, such as a protein, that contributes to the cause of a specific biochemical reaction or bodily process; promoter – a region of DNA that initiates transcription of a particular gene

    RNA polymerase plays a very crucial role in all steps including post-transcriptional changes in RNA. The Image shows how CTD is carrying protein for further changes in the RNA As shown in the image in the right it is evident that the CTD (C Terminal Domain) is a tail that changes its shape; this tail will be used as a carrier of splicing ...

    While the sugar-phosphate "backbone" of DNA contains deoxyribose, RNA contains ribose instead. [6] Ribose has a hydroxyl group attached to the pentose ring in the 2' position, whereas deoxyribose does not. The hydroxyl groups in the ribose backbone make RNA more chemically labile than DNA by lowering the activation energy of hydrolysis.

    First, convert each template DNA base to its RNA complement (note that the complement of A is now U), as shown below. Note that the template strand of the DNA is the one the RNA is polymerized against; the other DNA strand would be the same as the RNA, but with thymine instead of uracil. DNA -> RNA A -> U T -> A C -> G G -> C A=T-> A=U

  9. Xenotransfusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenotransfusion

    A second transfusion took place, but it was unsuccessful, and the patient died. Richard Lower, an English physician, performed a similar procedure on November 23, 1667. [1] [5] He successfully transfused the blood of a lamb to a 22-year-old man. [1] In both cases, the whole blood of the lamb was directly introduced into the vein of the patient.
