A molecule that binds to another molecule. G. ligand
Explanation:
Genome is also defined as a full set of genetic material in an organism.
SNP is usually referred to a substitution of a single nucleotide at a specific position in the DNA.
Micropipette is used for the precise measurement and for the exact amount of liquid delivery.
PCR is a widely used technique in molecular biology, used for the amplification (replication) of DNA fragments. It is performed thanks to heat-resistant enzyme (Taq polymerase) through the cyclic reactions. Polymerases are enzymes that add nucleotides in order to make chanis-polymers of nucleic acid (polymerization) and they require short DNA segment (primer) in order to start the polymerization.
Restriction enzymes are enzymes that recognize and cut DNA at specific site (restriction site) and are widely used in DNA cloning.
Signal transduction is a set of steps from signal binding to cell response that are transmitted through the cell. It usually starts with ligand-receptor binding.
