Lectins are glycoproteins of 60,000-100,000 MW that are known for their ability to agglutinate (clump) erythrocytes in vitro. There are over 400,000 estimated binding sites for kidney bean agglutinin on the surface of each erythrocytes. Lectins are found in most types of beans, including soybeans.
A DNA sequencer is a scientific instrument used to automate the DNA sequencing process.Given a sample of DNA, a DNA sequencer is used to determine the order of the four bases: G (guanine), C (cytosine), A (adenine) and T (thymine).This is then reported as a text string, called a read.NA sequencer manufacturers use a number of different methods to detect which DNA bases are present. The specific protocols applied in different sequencing platforms have an impact in the final data that is generated. Therefore, comparing data quality and cost across different technologies can be a daunting task.
Welcome to DNA Sequencing. DNA sequencing is any process used to map out the sequence of the nucleotides that comprise a strand of DNA. This website is meant as a primer to show you, step by step, what parts of DNA are being 'sequenced' and why it is such a valuable process for humankind to learn.To do this, I need to give you a linear overview of DNA, starting with how the familiar double-helix DNA strand is structured.his website is meant as a primer to show you, step by step, what parts of DNA are being 'sequenced' and why it is such a valuable process for humankind to learn.
