DNA is an acid in the chromosomes in the centre of the cells of living things. DNA determines the particular structure and functions of every cell and is responsible for characteristics being passed on from parents to their children. DNA is an abbreviation for `deoxyribonucleic acid'. deoxyribonucleic acid a substance that carries genetic information in the cells of the body DNA testing/profiling/fingerprinting/evidence etc (=processes that examine DNA samples to help discover who has committed a crime). or deoxyribonucleic acid One of two types of nucleic acid (the other is RNA); a complex organic compound found in all living cells and many viruses. It is the chemical substance of genes. Its structure, with two strands wound around each other in a double helix to resemble a twisted ladder, was first described (1953) by Francis Crick and James D. Watson. Each strand is a long chain (polymer) of repeating nucleotides: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T). The two strands contain complementary information: A forms hydrogen bonds (see hydrogen bonding) only with T, C only with G. When DNA is copied in the cell, the strands separate and each serves as a template for assembling a new complementary strand; this is the key to stable heredity. DNA in cells is organized into dense protein-DNA complexes (see nucleoprotein) called chromosomes. In eukaryotes these are in the nucleus, and DNA also occurs in mitochondria and chloroplasts (if any). Prokaryotes have a single circular chromosome in the cytoplasm. Some prokaryotes and a few eukaryotes have DNA outside the chromosomes in plasmids. See also Rosalind Franklin; genetic engineering; mutation; Maurice Wilkins
(biochemistry) a long linear polymer found in the nucleus of a cell and formed from nucleotides and shaped like a double helix; associated with the transmission of genetic information; "DNA is the king of molecules"
also termed deoxyribonucleic acid The molecule that encodes genetic information in the cells It resembles a double helix held together by weak bonds of four nucleotides (adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine) that are repeated ad infinitum in various sequences These sequences combine into genes that govern the production of proteins The DNA located within the nuclear membrane of eukaryotic cells is sometimes referred to as nDNA

n Nucleic acid molecule in the form of a twisted double strand (double helix) that is the major component of chromosomes and carries genetic information DNA, which is found in all living organisms but not in some viruses, is self-replicating and is responsible for passing along hereditary characteristics from one generation to the next
Deoxyribonucleic acid: Carrier of the genetic information; structural plan for proteins; the DNA consists of linearly linked nucleotides, whose sequence forms the hereditary information Illustration 1: The DNA, the deoxyribonucleic acid, consists of two strands of linked nucleotides with one of the four bases adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G) and cytosine (C) One oxygen atom is missing in the sugar content of the nucleotide - thus the prefix "deoxy" In the sequence of their nucleotides, and thus their bases, both strands are complementary to each other - in each case an A is opposed by a T and a G by a C; this base pairing holds it together The strands have 3- (referred to as: Three Dash) and a 5'-end and are arranged counter-rotationally

The long chain of molecules that carries the genetic instructions (genes) for making living organisms DNA is found in the nucleus where it is organized into highly specific sequences that define each gene on the 23 chromosomes
Deoxyribonucleic acid, the macro-molecular polymer which carries the genetic hereditary message and controls all cellular functions in most forms of life The twin strands, in the form of a helix, are composed of successive units of the sugar de-oxyribose, phosphate and the bases adenine, cytosine, guanine and thymine, through which the twin strands are cross-linked: adenine to thymine and cytosine to guanine
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a complex molecule found in the chromosomes of almost all organisms which acts as the primary genetic material; the part of the cell nucleus that is the repository of hereditary characteristics Dorsal
The molecule that encodes genetic information DNA is a double-stranded molecule held together by weak bonds between base pairs of nucleotides The four nucleotides in DNA contain the bases adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T) In nature, base pairs form only between A and T and between G and C; thus the base sequence of each single strand can be deduced from that of its partner

dna adduct
(Tıp, İlaç) A DNA adduct is an abnormal piece of DNA covalently-bonded to a cancer-causing chemical. This has shown to be the start of a cancerous cell, or carcinogenesis. DNA adducts in scientific experiments are used as bio-markers and as such are themselves measured to reflect quantitatively, for comparison, the amount of cancer in the subject, i.e. rats or other living animals. Under experimental conditions for study, such DNA adducts are induced by known carcinogens, of which commonly used is DMBA, chemically structured and named as 7,12-Dimethyl-benz[a] Anthracene . For example, a scientific journal that writes "DMBA - DNA adduct" is referring to a piece of DNA that has the chemical DMBA attached to it. The presence of such adduct indicates the presence of cancer in the subject animal
DNA computing
Form of computing in which DNA molecules are used instead of digital logic circuits. The biological cell is regarded as an entity that resembles a sophisticated computer. The four amino acid bases that are constituents of DNA, traditionally represented by the letters A, T, C, and G, are used as operators, as the binary digits 0 and 1 are used in computers. DNA molecules are encoded to a researcher's specifications and then induced to recombine (see recombination), resulting in trillions of "calculations" simultaneously. The field is in its infancy and its implications are only beginning to be explored. See also quantum computing
DNA fingerprint

DNA fingerprinting
DNA fingerprinting is the same as genetic fingerprinting. Method developed by the British geneticist Alec Jeffreys born 1950 in 1984 for isolating and making images of sequences of DNA. The procedure consists of obtaining a sample of cells containing DNA (e.g., from skin, blood, or hair), extracting the DNA, and purifying it. The DNA is then cut by enzymes, and the resulting fragments of varying lengths undergo procedures that permit them to be analyzed. The pattern of fragments is unique for each individual. DNA fingerprinting is used to help solve crimes and determine paternity; it is also used to locate gene segments that cause genetic diseases, to map the genetic material of humans (see Human Genome Project), to engineer drought-resistant plants (see genetic engineering), and to produce biological drugs from genetically altered cells
