Bio Term unusual bases is Other bases in addition to the normal adenine; cytosine; guanine; and uracil. Found primarily in tRNAs and produced by post transcription modification of one of the normal bases.Bio Term hybrid DNA is DNA whose two strands have different origins.
Bio Term Northern blot is Transfer of electrophoretically separated RNA molecules from a gel onto an absorbent sheet, which is then immersed in a labeled probe that will hybridize to an RNA of interest to reveal its presence. See Southern blotting.
Bio Term Expression vector is A cloning vector designed so that a foreign gene inserted into the vector will be expressed in the host organism. The inserted DNA is often placed under the control of a strong, regulatable promoter (e.g. the lacZ or araBAD promoter) so that expression of the gene product will only occur when desired.
Bio Term Autogenous repressor is The product of a regulator gene which binds to its own operator and prevents transcription of the associated structural genes.
