Animal
Animals are multicellular, eukaryotic organisms in the biological kingdom Animalia.
See Bacterial genetics and Animal
Bacteria
Bacteria (bacterium) are ubiquitous, mostly free-living organisms often consisting of one biological cell.
See Bacterial genetics and Bacteria
Cytoplasm
In cell biology, the cytoplasm describes all material within a eukaryotic cell, enclosed by the cell membrane, except for the cell nucleus.
See Bacterial genetics and Cytoplasm
DNA
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a polymer composed of two polynucleotide chains that coil around each other to form a double helix.
See Bacterial genetics and DNA
Eukaryote
The eukaryotes constitute the domain of Eukarya or Eukaryota, organisms whose cells have a membrane-bound nucleus.
See Bacterial genetics and Eukaryote
Frederick Griffith
Frederick Griffith (1877–1941) was a British bacteriologist whose focus was the epidemiology and pathology of bacterial pneumonia.
See Bacterial genetics and Frederick Griffith
Genetics
Genetics is the study of genes, genetic variation, and heredity in organisms.
See Bacterial genetics and Genetics
Horizontal gene transfer
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) or lateral gene transfer (LGT) is the movement of genetic material between organisms other than by the ("vertical") transmission of DNA from parent to offspring (reproduction).
See Bacterial genetics and Horizontal gene transfer
Microbial genetics
Microbial genetics is a subject area within microbiology and genetic engineering.
See Bacterial genetics and Microbial genetics
Nucleic acid
Nucleic acids are large biomolecules that are crucial in all cells and viruses.
See Bacterial genetics and Nucleic acid
Organelle
In cell biology, an organelle is a specialized subunit, usually within a cell, that has a specific function.
See Bacterial genetics and Organelle
Oswald Avery
Oswald Theodore Avery Jr. (October 21, 1877 – February 20, 1955) was a Canadian-American physician and medical researcher.
See Bacterial genetics and Oswald Avery
Protein biosynthesis
Protein biosynthesis (or protein synthesis) is a core biological process, occurring inside cells, balancing the loss of cellular proteins (via degradation or export) through the production of new proteins.
