CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Researchers report that a single-stranded DNA-binding protein (SSB), once thought to be a static player among the many molecules that interact with DNA, actually moves back and forth ...

Using an atomic force microscope tip as a pen and different single-stranded DNA as inks, scientists at Northwestern University have demonstrated a technique that could lead to the ultimate ...

Software lets researchers create tiny rounded objects out of DNA. Here’s why that’s cool. DURHAM, N.C. -- Marvel at the tiny nanoscale structures emerging from research labs at Duke University and ...

Mutations are changes in the molecular "letters" that make up the DNA code, the blueprint for all living cells. Some of these changes can have little effect, but others can lead to diseases, including ...

They observe how the mobile DNA LINE-1 copies its sequence in human cells, revealing the precise mechanism of the ORF2p gene.

They are weird, bald, subterranean rodents that look like sausages with teeth, and they have just revealed a genetic secret ...

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 ...

The Age of AI will rely on massive volumes of data that can be easily stored and retrieved—and bioscience may have an ingenious solution. A scientist examines a DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) profile on ...
