Newly developed DNA nanostructures can form flexible, fluid, and stimuli-responsive condensates without relying on chemical cross-linking, report researchers from the Institute of Science Tokyo and ...

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 ...

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 ...

Caltech researchers have identified a novel chemical reaction that could explain the formation of the building blocks of DNA ...

To assemble these minuscule structures, researchers first create a scaffold: a long piece of single-stranded DNA with a carefully designed sequence of bases. Then they add hundreds of shorter DNA ...

This image depicts the chemical structure of cytosine. It shows a hexagonal ring with nitrogen atoms at positions 1 and 3, and a primary amine group attached to carbon 4. The two remaining positions ...

South Korean researchers have developed a new catalyst platform capable of improving the efficiency of hydrogen and glycerol ...

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 ...

A screenshot of a Google Doodle, which is drawn in light and dark purple and shows a cartoonish DNA double helix, the structure of guanine and a phosphate group, and small cartoons of a chromosome and ...
