In short, DNA is a complex molecule that consists of many components ... Beyond the ladder-like structure described above, another key characteristic of double-stranded DNA is its unique three ...

Crick and Watson were trying to build a 3D model of the DNA molecule. But they were not the only ones working on finding its structure. They were competing with a team at King's College London ...

This structure, announced in their famous paper in the April 1953 issue of Nature, explained how the DNA molecule could replicate itself during cell division, enabling organisms to reproduce ...

the 'wings' and N-termini of RTP do not form intimate contacts with the DNA. This structure provides insight into the molecular basis of polar replication fork arrest based on a model of ...

J ohns Hopkins engineers have developed gel strips that change shape when given chemical instructions written in DNA code. These "gel automata," measuring just centimeters, can grow or shrink ...

"The length and structure of a single DNA molecule, its specific base sequence, and its interactions with proteins must be observed by stretching it for detailed analysis." ...

More than half of the mammalian genome consists of remnants of ancient viral DNA known as ‘transposable elements’ ─ sequences ...

The authors used a combination of super-resolution imaging techniques and liquid pressure flow to fine-tune the stretch ratio of a DNA molecule, improving the lateral resolution of side-by-side ...
