For the first time, scientists have witnessed the very moment DNA begins to unravel, revealing a necessary molecular event ...

Kokoris came up with the idea of solving some of the noise issue of nanopore sequencing by converting DNA into larger surrogate polymers, and he cofounded sequencing company Stratos Genomics back in ...

Scientists at the University of Leicester have captured the first detailed "molecular movie" showing DNA being unzipped at the atomic level – revealing how cells begin the crucial process of copying ...

Photosensitive metal complexes that are able to bind to DNA duplexes hold promise for diagnostic and therapeutic applications — but the precise details of how they interact with DNA need to be ...

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 ...

This discovery, along with the identification of other nitrogenous bases, laid the foundation for our understanding of DNA and RNA structure. Cytosine can be synthesized chemically or isolated from ...
