  2. Reverse complement polymerase chain reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_Complement...

    Universal primer hybridises to the RC probe and is extended by the DNA polymerase generating target specific primer. The 5 prime portion of the RC probe contains the reverse complement sequence of the desired target specific primer sequence. In RC-PCR, no target specific primers are present in the reaction mixture.

  3. Complementarity (molecular biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complementarity_(molecular...

    A cDNA library is a collection of expressed DNA genes that are seen as a useful reference tool in gene identification and cloning processes. cDNA libraries are constructed from mRNA using RNA-dependent DNA polymerase reverse transcriptase (RT), which transcribes an mRNA template into DNA. Therefore, a cDNA library can only contain inserts that ...

  4. Complementary DNA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complementary_DNA

    RNA serves as a template for cDNA synthesis. [3] In cellular life, cDNA is generated by viruses and retrotransposons for integration of RNA into target genomic DNA.In molecular biology, RNA is purified from source material after genomic DNA, proteins and other cellular components are removed. cDNA is then synthesized through in vitro reverse transcription.

  5. Inverted repeat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverted_repeat

    An inverted repeat (or IR) is a single stranded sequence of nucleotides followed downstream by its reverse complement. [1] The intervening sequence of nucleotides between the initial sequence and the reverse complement can be any length including zero. For example, 5'---TTACGnnnnnn CGTAA---3' is an inverted repeat sequence.

  6. MEME suite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MEME_suite

    Note:If MAST is combining reverse complement DNA strands, the position p-value is not corrected for multiple tests. Sequence p-value: The p-value of a match of a sequence to a motif is defined as the probability of a randomly generated sequence of the same length having a match score at least as large as the largest match score of any position ...

  7. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_transcription...

    Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) is a laboratory technique combining reverse transcription of RNA into DNA (in this context called complementary DNA or cDNA) and amplification of specific DNA targets using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). [1] It is primarily used to measure the amount of a specific RNA.

  8. CpG site - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CpG_site

    On the reverse DNA strand (in blue), the complementary 5'—CpG—3' site is shown. A C-G base-pairing between the two DNA strands is also indicated (right) The CpG sites or CG sites are regions of DNA where a cytosine nucleotide is followed by a guanine nucleotide in the linear sequence of bases along its 5' → 3' direction .

  9. Chargaff's rules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chargaff's_rules

    Chargaff's second rule appears to be the consequence of a more complex parity rule: within a single strand of DNA any oligonucleotide (k-mer or n-gram; length ≤ 10) is present in equal numbers to its reverse complementary nucleotide. Because of the computational requirements this has not been verified in all genomes for all oligonucleotides.
