Edward Golenberg of the University of California extracted a fragment of DNA from chloroplasts of a fossil Magnolia leaf. They excavated the fossil from the clay beds of a Miocene lake (17 to 20 million years old) in Clarkia, Idaho
Francis Crick discovered the Double Helix, the DNA strand.
James Watson and Francis Crick.
The template strand, if reffering to DNA, is the strand of the DNA that is copied to make more DNA.
The term for the 5' DNA strand is the leading strand.
The complementary strand of DNA to the template strand TACGGCTA would be ATGCCGAT.
The DNA strand that acts as a pattern for the newly synthesized DNA is called the template strand. It serves as a guide during DNA replication, where complementary nucleotides are added to create a new DNA strand.
It is a copy of the Dna original strand.
The complementary DNA strand to ACTGGCTAC is TGACCGATG.
The term for the 3' to 5' strand of DNA is the "antisense strand."
GGATCGA is comlementary to the DNA strand CCTAGCT.
GGATCGA. Each base in the original DNA strand pairs with its complementary base (A with T and C with G) in the new strand during DNA replication.
The DNA strand that is copied to make mRNA is the template strand of the gene. This strand serves as a template for the RNA polymerase enzyme to synthesize a complementary mRNA strand during the process of transcription.
