Metagenomics is a culture-independent approach for studying the genetic material of entire microbial communities. Explore its methods, sequencing technologies, bioinformatics, applications, challenges, and future.
DNA replication is the process cells use to accurately copy their genomes before division. Learn about replication origins, helicase, primase, DNA polymerase, leading and lagging strands, Okazaki fragments, proofreading, telomeres, and replication repair.
CRISPR gene editing is a powerful genetic engineering technology that allows scientists to target and modify specific DNA sequences. Learn how CRISPR-Cas9 works, how DNA repair creates edits, and how base editing, prime editing, CRISPRi, and CRISPRa expand genome-editing applications.
