Hidden within the genetic code lies the "triplet code," a series of three nucleotides that determine a single amino acid. How did scientists discover and unlock this amino acid code? Once the budding ...
The so-called central dogma of molecular biology states the process for turning genetic information into proteins that cells can use. “DNA makes RNA,” the dogma says, “and RNA makes protein.” Each ...
EXTENSIVE investigations have been reported recently of the incorporation of labelled amino-acids in cell-free protein-synthesizing systems to which synthetic polynucleotides of known compositions ...
