Inside every human cell, six feet of DNA folds into a nucleus that is only a few micrometers wide, yet still manages to ...
A dissertation study at the University of Jyväskylä (Finland) developed two-dimensional fishnet-like structures from DNA ...
Inside human cells, biology has pulled off the ultimate packing job, figuring out how to fit six feet of DNA into a nucleus ...
Cr yo-ET captured dozens of projection images of each slice from different angles. Computational processing then stitched ...
Fluorogenic DNA aptamers produce light only in the correct structural state, enabling programmable molecular logic, ...
DNA–protein cross-links (DPCs) represent a severe form of DNA damage that can disrupt essential chromatin-based processes. Among them, DNA–histone ...
Enzymes that cut DNA at specific sites are called endonucleases; these enzymes play many roles in genomic replication, fidelity, and defense. The initial discovery of restriction endonucleases in the ...
Scientists were able to fabricate a pure form of glass and coat specialized pieces of DNA with it to create a material that was not only stronger than steel, but incredibly lightweight. Working on the ...
Cryo-EM revealed HIV-1 integrase’s distinct structures as it shifts between its two roles of DNA integration and RNA-binding.
