Fig. 1 Transcription and translation of the genetic code. The three major processes involved in the transmission of genetic information are: A, DNA replication, which involves the synthesis of a complementary strand of an original DNA template; B, DNA transcription, in which a complementary mRNA strand is synthesized from an original DNA template; and C, translation of mRNA, resulting in protein synthesis. Each process is represented in this figure, with the commonly used molecular biology techniques applied to study these processes.

Fig. 2 The cell cycle. The four basic phases of the eukaryotic cell cycle are shown. The G1 phase involves most protein biosynthesis. The S-phase entails most of the cell's DNA synthesis and some additional protein synthesis. The G2 phase is characterized by the protein synthesis necessary for mitosis. In the M phase, the chromosomes condense and cell replication (mitosis) is initiated.

Fig. 3 Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay. DNA strand breaks with exposed carboxy (-OH) termini are labeled, conjugated, and studied to determine in vitro pre-programmed cell death or apoptosis.

Fig. 4 Western immunoblot analysis. Cell lysates are subjected to electrophoresis, transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane, incubated with protein-specific primary and marker-labeled (conjugated) secondary antibodies, and subsequently detected by means of chemiluminescence and x-ray film development.

Fig. 5 Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Immobilized antigens are incubated with protein-specific primary antibodies and marker-labeled (conjugated) secondary antibodies. Protein complexes are then quantified by means of colorimetric assay.
