The first crystal structure of an alternative DNA shape from the insulin gene has been revealed. The first crystal structure of an alternative DNA shape from the insulin gene has been revealed by a ...

Computational chemists at the University of Amsterdam's Van 't Hoff Institute for Molecular Sciences have developed a comprehensive software suite to create accurate models of DNA in biomolecular ...

A team led by Professor Michal Hocek at IOCB Prague has explored the limits of the structure and function of DNA and successfully pushed forward known boundaries. Their latest research has just been ...

DNA's iconic double helix does more than "just" store genetic information. Under certain conditions it can temporarily fold into unusual shapes. Researchers at Umeå University, Sweden, have now shown ...

In one sentence: DNA origami is a self-assembly technique that folds a long single-stranded DNA molecule into precisely defined nanoscale shapes using hundreds of short, computer-designed staple ...

The genome is more than a linear code; it is a dynamic structure whose three-dimensional folding dictates how genes are regulated. Traditional sequencing technologies capture base-level variation but ...

Seventy years ago, two male scientists, Francis Crick and James Watson, proclaimed they had discovered the secret of life: the structure of DNA. Since then, history has acknowledged how Rosalind ...

A piece that aired on NPR this week about the discovery of DNA's structure neglected to mention the significant contribution of Rosalind Franklin to that scientific milestone. And now some important ...
