This episode of 'Dr. DNA Dan' hosted by Professor Dan Handley from Southern California University of Health Sciences delves into genetics, specifically focusing on short tandem repeats (STRs). The podcast explains the significance of STRs in forensic DNA testing and paternity tests by measuring the number of repeated sequences in different individuals' genomes. STRs, found across all human chromosomes, are used to match DNA samples in criminal investigations through the CODIS database ...

In episodes 2, 3 and 4 of this podcast, we've learned that DNA is determined to be the molecule of inheritance, as well as how its structure is determined. What DNA Dan hasn't yet discussed is what DNA actually does. Or, if DNA is the so called "code of life," how is its code being read? And how is that information put into action? That brings us to the central dogma of molecular biology. In this episode, DNA Dan discusses the "central dogma of molecular biology," information the...
