Bioinformatics: Concept and Development | Genetics

In this article we will discuss about the concept and development of bioinformatics. Concept of Bioinformatics: Bioinformatics or life science informatics has emerged as a new branch of biotechnology, offering a fundamental tool to the biologist to accelerate commercialization of biotechnology. Bioinformatics is the classic example of convergence of biotechnology and information technol­ogy. Bioinformatics has been the most powerful tools [...]

Manipulation of Fruit Softening | Genetics

In this article we will discuss about the manipulation of fruit softening by antisense RNA. Plant cell wall is responsible for providing mechanical strength to plant organs. Tissue and cells due to their complex structure and biomolecules are involved. During fruit ripening several hydrolytic enzymes such as PG, PME and cellulase cleaves various polymers that con­stitute cell wall and consequently [...]

Early Experiments by Antisense RNA | Plants

In this article we will demonstrate the expression vector that make antisense gene RNA in laboratory. Inhibition of gene expression in natural system by antisense RNA led to the development of strategies to artificially regulate genes using antisense RNA. In a single manipulation, antisense RNA complementary to target mRNA can be synthesized in laboratory and may be used to down [...]
