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 ...

Scientists at TU Delft and the Max Planck Institute have made a new class of structurally adaptable ‘mechanical’ pores made from DNA that can transport molecules through cell membranes. These ...

Fluorogenic DNA aptamers produce light only in the correct structural state, enabling programmable molecular logic, ...

The universal features that define genomic regions acting as replication origins remain unclear. In this study, we mapped a set of origins in Trypanosoma brucei using stranded short nascent strand ...

Nucleic acids are complex biological molecules that store and transmit genetic information in all living organisms. They are essential for the survival and reproduction of life on Earth. The two main ...

Scientists at the University of Vienna have achieved a significant milestone in DNA technology, introducing a breakthrough that expands the color spectrum available for DNA-based images. Traditionally ...
