Relationship between Gene and Enzyme | Cell Biology

Learn about the relationship between Gene and Enzyme. An understanding of the relationship of the gene and the enzyme is crucial for an analysis of the basis of growth and development of an orga­nism. It has been established through varied lines of evidences that genes control all hereditary characters of an organism, which are transmitted from generation to generation. Simultaneously, [...]

Short Notes on Oncogenes | Gene

Genes that confer the ability to convert cells to a tumourigenic state are called oncogenes. Cancer cells are characterised by immortaliza­tion, transformation and metastasis. Oncogenes induce uncontrolled cell growth resulting in tumour, so it can be anticipated that the products of these genes would act by stimu­lating cell division in some manner. Now it is clear that the products of [...]

Quick Notes on Genetic Code | Cell Biology

Quick Notes on Genetic Code:- 1. Introduction to Genetic Code 2. Properties of Genetic Code 3. Exceptions 4. Decipherence. Introduction to Genetic Code: Living things depend on proteins for exis­tence, the latter produce enzymes necessary for all chemical reactions. Structural infor­mation required to specify the synthesis of any given protein resides in the molecule of DNA which has the spatial [...]
