Understanding DNA Ligation Techniques for Molecular Biology Applications
DNA ligation involves joining DNA fragments to vectors to create new DNA or plasmids. Methods include DNA ligase, T4 ligase, and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase. Linkers and adaptors play a key role in DNA cloning experiments by generating sticky ends for DNA cloning. The use of adaptors allow

Understanding Translation in Genetic Processes
Translation is the process of converting RNA messages into amino acids in cells. This key step in gene expression involves decoding codons, utilizing tRNA as adaptors, and following the genetic code to produce proteins. The shared genetic code, the role of tRNA in carrying amino acids, and the conti
