The DNA packed inside every human cell contains instructions for life, written in billions of letters of genetic code. Every time a cell divides, the complete code, divided among 46 chromosomes, must ...
Visualizing and quantifying DNA replication dynamics in living human cells remains challenging. Here, a new super-resolution ...
Humans and baker's yeast have more in common than meets the eye, including an important mechanism that helps ensure DNA is copied correctly, reports a pair of studies. The findings visualize for the ...
A new tool developed at ETH Zurich, MetaGraph, allows scientists to search through vast public DNA and RNA databases in seconds — like a “Google for DNA.” DNA sequencing has transformed biomedical ...
In the double helix structure of DNA, thymine forms a base pair with adenine through two hydrogen bonds. This specific pairing is known as complementary base pairing and is essential for the stability ...
Companies that make DNA for science labs screen out any requests for dangerous bits of genetic material. But a new study ...
Naked mole-rats are one of nature's most extraordinary creatures. These burrowing rodents can live for up to 37 years, around ...
