  2. Sucralose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sucralose

    Sucralose: (C 12 H 19 Cl 3 O 8) Black Carbon, White Hydrogen, Green Chloride, Red Oxygen. Sucralose is an artificial sweetener and sugar substitute. As the majority of ingested sucralose is not metabolized by the body, it adds very little food energy (14 kJ [3.3 kcal] per gram). [3] In the European Union, it is also known under the E number E955.

  3. DNA damage (naturally occurring) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_damage_(naturally...

    The packaging of eukaryotic DNA into chromatin is a barrier to all DNA-based processes that require enzyme action. For most DNA repair processes, the chromatin must be remodeled . In eukaryotes, ATP -dependent chromatin remodeling complexes and histone-modifying enzymes are two factors that act to accomplish this remodeling process after DNA ...

  4. DNA condensation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_condensation

    Chromosome scaffold has important role to hold the chromatin into compact chromosome. Chromosome scaffold is made of proteins including condensin, topoisomerase IIα and kinesin family member 4 (KIF4) [7] Dinoflagellates are very divergent eukaryotes in terms of how they package their DNA. Their chromosomes are packed in a liquid-crystalline ...

    Sucralose, a chemical found in Splenda, may have cancer-causing properties, a new study finds. Nutritionists offer alternatives to artificial sweeteners.

  6. Clastogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clastogen

    Aneugens induce mis-segregation of chromosomes into daughter cells while clastogens break the DNA and chromosome. A clastogen is a mutagenic agent that disturbs normal DNA related processes or directly causes DNA strand breakages, thus causing the deletion, insertion, or rearrangement of entire chromosome sections. [1]

  7. Nucleic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleic_acid

    The code is read by copying stretches of DNA into the related nucleic acid RNA in a process called transcription. Within cells, DNA is organized into long sequences called chromosomes. During cell division these chromosomes are duplicated in the process of DNA replication, providing each cell its own complete set of chromosomes.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA

    The set of chromosomes in a cell makes up its genome; the human genome has approximately 3 billion base pairs of DNA arranged into 46 chromosomes. [96] The information carried by DNA is held in the sequence of pieces of DNA called genes .
