| DNA | deoxyribonucleic acid; did not answer |
| G1 | presynthetic gap [phase of cells prior to DNA synthesis] |

| IDS | iduronate sulfatase; immune deficiency state; inhibitor of DNA synthesis; integrated delivery system... |
| negative strand virus | A virus the genome of which is a strand of RNA that is complementary to messenger RNA; negative strand virus's also carry RNA polymerases necessary for the synthesis of messenger RNA. (05 Mar 2000) |

| strand | <geography> The shore, especially the beach of a sea, ocean, or large lake; rarely, the margin of a navigable river. Strand birds. <zoology> The brown hyena. Origin: AS. Strand; akin to D, G, Sw, & Dan. Strand, Icel. Strond. (26 Nov 1998) |
| nonsense strand | <molecular biology> DNA that does not code for part of a polypeptide chain or RNA.This includes introns and pseudo genes. In eukaryotes the majority of the DNA is noncoding. Noncoding strand refers to the so called nonsense strand, as opposed to the sense strand which is actually translated into mRNA. (18 Nov 1997) |
| double-strand break | A break in double-stranded DNA in which both strands have been cleaved; however, the two strands have not separated from each other. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lagging strand | The DNA strand that is replicated discontinuously from the 5' to the 3' direction. See: Okazaki fragments. Compare: leading strand. (09 Oct 1997) |
| four-strand crossing over | Crossing over with both strands of DNA from each sister chromatid, so that both strands from one chromatid are exchanged for both strands on the other. This is different from the usual case where only one of the two DNA strands on one sister chromatid is exchanged for the one matching strand (of the two strands) on the other sister chromatid. (09 Oct 1997) |
| leading strand | The DNA strand that is synthesised continuously during replication Compare: lagging strand. (09 Oct 1997) |
