Modification of program enables prediction of gene transcription
A modification to an "ace" gene prediction program by computer scientists at Washington University in St. Louis now enables scientists to predict the very beginnings of gene transcription start sites and where the first splice occurs thereby defining the first exon of the gene. The modification to the gene prediction software TWINSCAN is called N-SCAN. Michael Brent, Ph.D. professor of com...NYU chemists use computer simulation to enhance understanding of DNA transcription
New York University chemists have employed a computer simulation whose results have enhanced scientific understanding of the DNA transcription process. The study, funded by the National Institutes of Health, appears in the June 7 issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Previous research has indicated that chromatin--a chromosome's substance consisting of histone prote...Solexa and collaborating scientists illuminate the small RNA component of the transcriptome
Solexa, Inc. (Nasdaq: SLXA) today announced that its researchers in collaboration with the Delaware Biotechnology Institute and the University of Delaware reported the most comprehensive analysis to date of the small RNA component of the transcriptome. The research, "Elucidation of the Small RNA Component of the Transcriptome," was published in the September 2, 2005 issue of the peer-reviewed jou...Mammalian Transcriptome Mapped
The FANTOM Consortium for Genome Exploration Research Group, a large international collection of scientists that includes researchers at The Scripps Research Institute's Florida campus, is reporting the results of a massive multi-year project to map the mammalian "transcriptome" in this week's issue of the journal Science. The transcriptome, or transcriptional landscape as it is sometimes...Discovering the first steps in transcription-coupled repair
A team of scientists led by Priscilla Cooper, a senior staff scientist in the Life Sciences Division of the Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, has discovered new players in the first steps of transcription-coupled repair (TCR), an essential but still mysterious mechanism of DNA repair. If a blockage occurs when genetic information from a cell's DNA is being trans...M-MLV Reverse Transcriptase from USB Corp.
Description:Source: E. coli strain containing an overproducing clone of M-MLV Reverse Transcriptase. 10 kb, may be synthesized. M-MLV Reverse Transcriptase has a much lower RNase H activity than AMV Reverse Transcriptase resulting in high yields of full l...AMV Reverse Transcriptase from Promega
Description:Avian Myeloblastosis Virus Reverse Transcriptase (AMV RT) catalyzes the polymerization of DNA using template DNA, RNA or RNA:DNA hybrids (1). It requires a primer (DNA primers are more efficient than RNA primers) as well as Mg2+ or Mn2+. The enzyme possesses an intrinsic RNase H activity. Both nonionic detergents and sulfhydryl compounds stabilize the enzyme activity in vitro....Reverse Transcriptase AMV; RNA dependent DNA polymerase from Roche Applied Science

Description:SuperScript™ II RNase H- Reverse Transcriptase (RT) is an improved version of the SuperScript™ RNase H- RT. It is a DNA polymerase that synthesizes a complementary DNA strand from single-stranded RNA DNA or an RNA:DNA hybrid. This enzyme is genetically engineered by the introduction of point mutations rather than a deletion in the RNase H active center. Like SuperScript™ RT Supe...SuperScript II RNase H- Reverse Transcriptase from Invitrogen

Biological chemists at the University of north Carolina at Chapel Hill, state about the discovery of how living organisms convert genetic instructions into action. The UNC scientists have found a previously unknown chemical site on a key enzyme that regulates production of the genetic messenger known as RNA.// When the chemical site is occupied, it markedly speeds up the process by...Rising in career top charts is Medical transcription
India is a country that wakes up to new things and accepts them, although medical transcription is not so popular it is fast catching up.// Here doctors maintain there records in papers and are not well stocked in most cases. It is treated as just a job to document doctors’ patient records. In contrast, in the US, medical case files are dictated by the doctors and maintained in the ele...Leeds Hospitals to Outsource Medical Transcription Work to India
Hospitals in Leeds are the latest medical trusts facing major losses to outsource medical transcription work to India to save nearly one million pounds a year.// Around 60 specialist posts are to be abolished as part of the outsourcing. Hospitals in Leeds are reported to be facing debts of 84 million pounds. Several other hospitals in Britain have already outsourced such work to India....ZODIAC - MEDICAL TRANSCRIPTION
