Amino acid

Amino acids are organic compounds containing amine (-NH2) and carboxyl (-COOH) functional groups, along with a side chain (R group) specific to each amino acid.

Bacteria

Bacteria (common noun bacteria, singular bacterium) is a type of biological cell.

Bacteriophage

A bacteriophage, also known informally as a phage, is a virus that infects and replicates within Bacteria and Archaea.

Complementary DNA

In genetics, complementary DNA (cDNA) is DNA synthesized from a single stranded RNA (e.g., messenger RNA (mRNA) or microRNA) template in a reaction catalyzed by the enzyme reverse transcriptase.

Cytoplasm

In cell biology, the cytoplasm is the material within a living cell, excluding the cell nucleus.

New!!: M13 bacteriophage and Cytoplasm · See more »

DNA

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a thread-like chain of nucleotides carrying the genetic instructions used in the growth, development, functioning and reproduction of all known living organisms and many viruses.

DNA gyrase

DNA gyrase, or simply gyrase, is an enzyme within the class of topoisomerase (Type II topoisomerase) that relieves strain while double-stranded DNA is being unwound by helicase.

DNA supercoil

DNA supercoiling refers to the over- or under-winding of a DNA strand, and is an expression of the strain on that strand.

Endonuclease

Endonucleases are enzymes that cleave the phosphodiester bond within a polynucleotide chain.

Escherichia coli

Escherichia coli (also known as E. coli) is a Gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped, coliform bacterium of the genus Escherichia that is commonly found in the lower intestine of warm-blooded organisms (endotherms).

Ff phages

The Ff phages are filamentous phages that infect gram-negative bacteria bearing the F episome.

New!!: M13 bacteriophage and Ff phages · See more »

Filamentous bacteriophage

A filamentous bacteriophage is a type of bacteriophage, or virus of bacteria, defined by its filament-like or rod-like shape.

Gene

In biology, a gene is a sequence of DNA or RNA that codes for a molecule that has a function.

New!!: M13 bacteriophage and Gene · See more »

Genome

In the fields of molecular biology and genetics, a genome is the genetic material of an organism.

Nanotechnology

Nanotechnology ("nanotech") is manipulation of matter on an atomic, molecular, and supramolecular scale.

Phage display

Phage display is a laboratory technique for the study of protein–protein, protein–peptide, and protein–DNA interactions that uses bacteriophages (viruses that infect bacteria) to connect proteins with the genetic information that encodes them.

Phagemid

A phagemid or phasmid is a DNA-based cloning vector, which has both bacteriophage and plasmid properties.

Pilus

A pilus (Latin for 'hair'; plural: pili) is a hair-like appendage found on the surface of many bacteria.

New!!: M13 bacteriophage and Pilus · See more »

Plasmid

A plasmid is a small DNA molecule within a cell that is physically separated from a chromosomal DNA and can replicate independently.

New!!: M13 bacteriophage and Plasmid · See more »

Protein

Proteins are large biomolecules, or macromolecules, consisting of one or more long chains of amino acid residues.

New!!: M13 bacteriophage and Protein · See more »

Type II topoisomerase

Type II topoisomerases cut both strands of the DNA helix simultaneously in order to manage DNA tangles and supercoils.
