DNA sequencing (article) | Biotechnology | Khan Academy
DNA sequencing is the process of determining the sequence of nucleotide bases (As, Ts, Cs, and Gs) in a piece of DNA. Today, with the right equipment and materials, sequencing a short …
DNA sequencing (video) | Biotechnology | Khan Academy
DNA sequencing involves three main steps: 1) using PCR to amplify DNA fragments, 2) introducing dideoxynucleotides that halt DNA strand elongation, and 3) employing a computer …
Biometry and genetic data (article) | Khan Academy
The development of DNA sequencing technologies, such as next-generation sequencing (NGS), has revolutionized the study of genomes by allowing researchers to sequence entire genomes …
The genetic code & codon table (article) | Khan Academy
Decoding messages is also a key step in gene expression, in which information from a gene is read out to build a protein. In this article, we'll take a closer look at the genetic code, which …
Evolutionary time (article) | Khan Academy
At the molecular level, evolution is largely the result of random mutations—small, spontaneous changes in the DNA sequence—that accumulate over generations.
Restriction enzymes & DNA ligase (article) | Khan Academy
How can pieces of DNA from different sources (such as a human gene and a bacterial plasmid) be joined together to make a single DNA molecule? One common method is based on …

Genetic linkage & mapping (article) | Khan Academy
We can see if two genes are linked, and how tightly, by using data from genetic crosses to calculate the recombination frequency. By finding recombination frequencies for many gene …
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) (article) | Khan Academy
Using PCR, a DNA sequence can be amplified millions or billions of times, producing enough DNA copies to be analyzed using other techniques. For instance, the DNA may be visualized …
