  2. DNA polymerase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_polymerase

    A DNA polymerase is a member of a family of enzymes that catalyze the synthesis of DNA molecules from nucleoside triphosphates, the molecular precursors of DNA. These enzymes are essential for DNA replication and usually work in groups to create two identical DNA duplexes from a single original DNA duplex. During this process, DNA polymerase ...

  3. RNA polymerase II - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RNA_polymerase_II

    RNA polymerase II ( RNAP II and Pol II) is a multiprotein complex that transcribes DNA into precursors of messenger RNA (mRNA) and most small nuclear RNA (snRNA) and microRNA. [ 1][ 2] It is one of the three RNAP enzymes found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. [ 3] A 550 kDa complex of 12 subunits, RNAP II is the most studied type of RNA ...

  4. DNA polymerase II - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_polymerase_II

    DNA Polymerase II. (str. K-12 substr. MG1655) DNA polymerase II (also known as DNA Pol II or Pol II) is a prokaryotic DNA-dependent DNA polymerase encoded by the PolB gene. [ 1] DNA Polymerase II is an 89.9-kDa protein and is a member of the B family of DNA polymerases. It was originally isolated by Thomas Kornberg in 1970, and characterized ...

  5. RNA polymerase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RNA_polymerase

    RNA polymerase (purple) unwinding the DNA double helix. It uses one strand (darker orange) as a template to create the single-stranded messenger RNA (green). In molecular biology, RNA polymerase (abbreviated RNAP or RNApol ), or more specifically DNA-directed/dependent RNA polymerase ( DdRP ), is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactions ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classes_of_supply

    Class II – Supplies for which allowances are established by tables of organization and equipment, e.g., clothing, weapons, tools, spare parts, vehicles. Class III – Petroleum, oil and lubricants (POL) for all purposes, except for operating aircraft or for use in weapons such as flamethrowers, e.g., gasoline, fuel oil, greases, coal, and coke.

  7. Structure and genome of HIV - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structure_and_genome_of_HIV

    The genome and proteins of HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) have been the subject of extensive research since the discovery of the virus in 1983. [1] [2] "In the search for the causative agent, it was initially believed that the virus was a form of the Human T-cell leukemia virus (HTLV), which was known at the time to affect the human immune system and cause certain leukemias.

  8. Pineapple Poll - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pineapple_Poll

    Pineapple Poll. Pineapple Poll is a Gilbert and Sullivan -inspired comic ballet, created by choreographer John Cranko with arranger Sir Charles Mackerras. Pineapple Poll is based on "The Bumboat Woman's Story", one of W. S. Gilbert 's Bab Ballads, written in 1870. The Gilbert and Sullivan opera H.M.S. Pinafore was also based, in part, on this ...

  9. DNA polymerase III holoenzyme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_polymerase_III_holoenzyme

    DNA polymerase III holoenzyme. Schematic picture of DNA polymerase III* (with subunits). This is the old textbook "trombone model" with two units of Pol III. DNA polymerase III holoenzyme is the primary enzyme complex involved in prokaryotic DNA replication. It was discovered by Thomas Kornberg (son of Arthur Kornberg) and Malcolm Gefter in 1970.
