Micro measurements are nessessery because DNA is so small and microscopic and other measurements are simply too large (they are bigger than the DNA).

What is micro DNA?

Micro DNA is a segment of DNA that has about 25 base pairs repeated roughly 1000 times.


Why does DNA ligase require ATP or NAD plus to connect two Okazaki fragments?

DNA ligase requires ATP or NAD+ to catalyze the formation of phosphodiester bonds between Okazaki fragments during DNA replication. These molecules provide the necessary energy and phosphate group for the ligation process. Specifically, ATP is hydrolyzed to AMP and pyrophosphate, or NAD+ is converted to NADH, facilitating the joining of the DNA strands by forming a covalent bond at the sugar-phosphate backbone. This process is essential for the integrity and continuity of the newly synthesized DNA strand.


Why primers are phosphorylated in 5' end?

Primers are phosphorylated at the 5' end to facilitate the initiation of DNA synthesis during PCR and other molecular biology techniques. The phosphate group is necessary for the attachment of the primer to the DNA polymerase enzyme, allowing it to extend the primer by adding nucleotides. Additionally, phosphorylation helps ensure that the primers can be efficiently ligated or incorporated into the DNA strand, enhancing the overall efficiency of the amplification process.


What is the function of CL buffer in DNA extraction?

In a DNA extraction, the purpose of a buffer is to solubilize DNA as well as RNA. Because of this, it prevents the DNA for degrading.


What is DNA cloning?

DNA cloning is the production of large number of identical DNA molecules from a single ancestral DNA molecule. It is of two types 1. cell based DNA cloning 2. cell free DNA cloning

How does DNA relate to macromolecules?

DNA is a type of macromolecule known as a nucleic acid. It contains the genetic information necessary for the development and functioning of living organisms. Proteins, another type of macromolecule, are synthesized based on the instructions coded in DNA.


What do you do with DNA?

What is necessary for transcription?

DNA polymerase is the enzyme that "unzips" the complementary DNA strands allowing mRNA to transcribe, or copy, a section of DNA.

What is Hydrogen bonding necessary for?

Hydrogen bonding is necessary for forming double-stranded DNA molecules.


Why is it necessary to add a nucleotide during dna replication?

DNA itself is made up of nucleotides. Nucleotides links with each other to form a DNA chain. In the process of DNA replication, parent DNA strand needs to be duplicated. Hence, to make a new strand of DNA it requires nucleotides.
