Template


Definition:

  • (n.) Same as Templet.

Example Sentences:

  • (2) The RNA polymerase activity was tested after the solubilization and chromatographic resolution of the three types of polymerases with exogenous template.
  • (3) Gene 4 protein does not catalyze the hydrolysis of NTPs in the presence of duplex DNA, nor can T7 DNA polymerase use duplex DNA as a template.
  • (4) Elongation of existing RNA primers by the human polymerase-primase was semi-processive; following primer binding the DNA polymerase continuously incorporated 20 to 50 nucleotides, then it dissociated from the template DNA.
  • (5) Lysates of cells were compared to purified DNA as PCR template.
  • (6) Infidelity of replication is a hallmark of the HIV-1 RT, and replication errors by the enzyme on RNA and DNA templates are discussed.
