What is a linker DNA?

Linker DNA is short stretches of DNA that connect nucleosomes, the basic units of chromatin. These linkers help to position and stabilize nucleosomes along the DNA strand and play a role in regulating gene expression and chromatin structure.


What is cross-linker solution?

A cross-linker solution is a chemical compound used in cross-linking reactions to form covalent bonds between molecules or polymers. This helps to stabilize or enhance the structure of materials like gels, adhesives, or coatings. Cross-linkers are commonly used in biology, chemistry, and materials science.


What is the molar mass of c-phycocyanin?

The alpha chain is 18 kda and the beta is 21 kda. But usually Phycocyanin exists as trimer along with some linker peptides. The molecular weight of trimer is 121 kda


What is a fusion primer?

Not 100% sure, but I believe it's a primer with a linker attached to it. A linker is a short DNA that has a restriction site built-in. Imagine this: you want to amplify a gene by PCR, but it has no suitable restriction site for you to clone into a vector. So by PCR with a fusion primer (with built-in restriction site), you can simply digest the ends and ligate it into your vector


What is the structure of divinylbenzene cross-linked polystyrene solid support?

the styrene portion creates linear polymeric structures since styrene is monofunctional. The divinylbenzene is difunctional, so where it is indorporated in a styrene chain, there is one functional group left to react. When this happens in the making of another polystyrene chain, the result is a crosslinked structure. The proportion of divinylbenzene controls the amount of crosslinking. This translates into more or less porosity (allowed permeation in the final polymer) with less or more divinylbenzene.
