All GenomesThe following is a list of all Karyns genomes: ArchaeaThere are two major classes of prokayotes these are bacteria and archaea. Their DNA is usually circular DNA and NOT contained in a nucleus. Archaeans are single celled and resemble bacteria and have some genes that are similar to bacterial genes and other genes that have a higher similarity to those found in eukaryotes. Furthermore, they have some genes that are unlike any found in any other organism... more
Bacteria There are two major classes of prokayotes these are bacteria and archaea. Their DNA is usually circular DNA and NOT contained in a nucleus. Bacteria are single celled and very versatlie. Bacteria have been found that can live in temperatures above the boiling point and in freezing temperatures. They "eat" everything from sugar and starch to sunlight, sulfur and iron... more
Eukaryotes These are organisms whose cells have cytoskeletons for support and their DNA contained in a nucleus, separated from the other contents of the cell; e.g. plants, animals, and fungi... more
Viruses Viruses are sub-microscopic, obligate intracellular parasites. Virus particles are produced from the assembly of pre-formed components. Virus particles (virions) do not 'grow' or undergo division. Viruses lack the genetic information which encodes apparatus necessary for the generation of metabolic energy or for protein synthesis (ribosomes). Viruses depend on the host cells that they infect to reproduce... more
