Computer print-out of a DNA sequence
DNA sequencing. Computer print-out of the sequence of bases in a sample of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). The sequence, which makes up the genetic code, is shown graphically and as a code of letters; each code of letters refers to the graph beneath it. The four bases which make up the cross-linking strands in DNA are: guanine (G), cytosine (C), thymine (T) and adenine (A). The information contained within a genome, the full set of genes (specific segments of DNA), determines every physical characteristic of an organism. Mutations in the genome can be the cause of inherited diseases such as cystic fibrosis

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate world of DNA sequencing. The image depicts a computer print-out displaying the sequence of bases in a sample of DNA, which is essentially the genetic code that governs all living organisms. The visual representation presents both a graphical and coded format, with each letter denoting a specific base and corresponding to its respective graph below. The four essential bases forming the cross-linking strands in DNA are vividly highlighted: guanine (G), cytosine (C), thymine (T), and adenine (A). These fundamental building blocks hold immense significance as they determine every physical characteristic exhibited by an organism. Within this genome lies an abundance of information, constituting the complete set of genes or specific segments of DNA. This invaluable data acts as a blueprint for life itself, dictating traits ranging from eye color to disease susceptibility. However, it is crucial to acknowledge that mutations within this genome can have profound implications on an individual's health. Inherited diseases like cystic fibrosis can be traced back to alterations within these genetic sequences. Through this visually striking photograph captured by Science Photo Library, we gain insight into the fascinating realm of biochemistry, genetics, and biotechnology. It serves as a reminder that our understanding of DNA sequencing continues to unravel mysteries at the core of life sciences research without mentioning any commercial use associated with it.
