Is human DNA enough? - Potential for bacterial DNA [PDF]

Frontiers in Genetics, 2013
Human identification has played an important role in forensic science for the past two decades and it will continue to do so. However, there are certain types of traces, for example, low quality and low quantity of DNA, often associated with violent crimes, which cannot always be satisfactorily exploited by current techniques. So what is next?

Bacterial DNA methyltransferase: A key to the epigenetic world with lessons learned from proteobacteria

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Epigenetics modulates expression levels of various important genes in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. These epigenetic traits are heritable without any change in genetic DNA sequences. DNA methylation is a universal mechanism of epigenetic regulation in

Bacterial DNA ligases [PDF]

Molecular Microbiology, 2001
DNA ligases join breaks in the phosphodiester backbone of DNA molecules and are used in many essential reactions within the cell. All DNA ligases follow the same reaction mechanism, but they may use either ATP or NAD+ as a cofactor. All Bacteria (eubacteria) contain NAD+‐dependent DNA ligases, and the uniqueness of these enzymes to Bacteria makes them ...

Wolbachia and DNA barcoding insects: patterns, potential and problems [PDF]

, 2012
Wolbachia is a genus of bacterial endosymbionts that impacts the breeding systems of their hosts. Wolbachia can confuse the patterns of mitochondrial variation, including DNA barcodes, because it influences the pathways through which mitochondria are ...
