The DNA double helix is composed of two DNA molecules whose sequences are complementary to each other. The stability of the duplex can be fine-tuned in the lab by controlling the amount and location ...
Newly developed DNA nanostructures can form flexible, fluid, and stimuli-responsive condensates without relying on chemical cross-linking, report researchers from the Institute of Science Tokyo and ...
The developed probe exclusively reacts with mitochondrial DNA repair intermediates and modulates the DNA repair and degradation processes, reducing mitochondrial DNA loss. When environmental stress ...
From synthetic biology and gene therapy to data storage and biofuel production, the demand for synthetic DNA is rising. (1) Chemicals remove the 5’-hydroxyl protecting group. The nucleosides are rich ...
Scientists have been experimenting with ways to use DNA as a data storage medium, but it’s difficult to retrieve and manipulate data written to it. Now a team has developed “chemical neurons” that can ...
Most of an animal cell’s DNA is stored in its nucleus, packaged into chromosomes that help maintain order. But cancer cells often carry another type of DNA: molecules separate from the rest of the ...
A screenshot of a Google Doodle, which is drawn in light and dark purple and shows a cartoonish DNA double helix, the structure of guanine and a phosphate group, and small cartoons of a chromosome and ...
