DNA is fundamental to the biology of all life on Earth, but how many of us actually know what it is or what it's made of?

For successful cell division, chromosomal DNA needs to be packed into compact rod-shaped structures. Defects in this process can lead to cell death or diseases like cancer. A new study has shown how ...

A new study in the journal Human Gene Therapy indicates that DNA impurities derived from plasmid and host cell DNA are ...

Transgenic animals continue to play an essential role in many aspects of zebrafish research, including the development of disease models. The most widely used system for zebrafish transgenesis is the ...

Scientists have finally captured footage of the microscopic machinery that allows our cells to copy DNA—a fundamental process ...

In its structure, DNA contains a pattern for producing amino ... Two nucleotides together form a base pair; the sugars and phosphates form a "backbone," along which the base pairs are strung.

New data on Marvel Rivals’ Ranked mode reveals that the vast majority of players remain stuck at the bottom, with over 100,000 players still in Bronze 3. Despite several months to climb the ...

Finally, the DNA backbone is sealed, and the damaged DNA is restored back ... Answering those questions required the researchers to solve the structure of the PInC. In biology, understanding protein ...

Mammalian genomes are organized by multi-level folding, yet how this organization contributes to cell type-specific transcription remain unclear. We uncovered that the nuclear protein SATB1 ...

Sunburns and aging skin are obvious effects of exposure to harmful UV rays, tobacco smoke and other carcinogens. But the effects aren't just skin deep. Inside the body, DNA is literally being torn ...

Researchers at Georgia State University used the Summit supercomputer to study an elaborate molecular pathway called ...

A UK tech company cracking down on counterfeit handbags and jewellery is mulling a listing on the London Stock Exchange. Quantum Base, which was spun out from the University of Lancaster, could ...
