DNA can be read in six possible reading frames, 3 in the forward direction and 3 in the reverse direction.&nbsp; Each frame will result in different open reading frames (ORF), segments of DNA containing a start and stop codon that can translate into possible proteins.&nbsp; However, the reading frame containing the longest ORF is most often the only one used when a cell transcribes a DNA segment or gene.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <div class="field field-type-text field-field-project-technology-used"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <p></p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-number-integer field-field-project-feature"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> No </div> </div> </div> <fieldset class="fieldgroup group-quote"><div class="field field-type-text field-field-project-quote"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <p></p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-type-number-integer field-field-show-quote"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> No </div> </div> </div> </fieldset> <p><a href="http://oeit.mit.edu/gallery/projects/starorf" target="_blank">read more</a></p> Star ORF Thu, 28 Jan 2010 19:29:53 +0000 drupaladmin 270 at http://oeit.mit.edu
