ixteen strands of DNA, stacked four-by-four, form the beam-shaped chassis of the DNA motor (in gray). Bits of DNA (in green) protrude from the chassis like little feet. The motor is fueled by RNA ...

Indeed, many human subpopulations carry distinct markers, and by tracing these markers through the generations, one can draw a genetic ... using more sensitive DNA markers (Templeton, 1997).

Scientists at deCODE genetics/Amgen have constructed a complete map of how human DNA is mixed as it is passed down during reproduction. The map marks a major step in the understanding of genetic ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) A comprehensive recombination map of the human genome has been developed, highlighting how DNA is mixed during reproduction. This map includes short-scale ...
