NASA scientists found amino acids, key minerals, and nucleobases for DNA in samples from the OSIRIS-REx asteroid mission.

How does the cell convert DNA into working proteins ... of a Complex Structure The translation of mRNA begins with the formation of a complex on the mRNA (Figure 4). First, three initiation ...

Connecting DNA "Sometimes, a cell needs to be quick in changing which genes should be expressed and which ones should be turned off, for example in response to food, alcohol or heat. To turn genes ...

This stalled meiotic progression coincided with the activation of a DNA damage checkpoint, triggered by double-strand break formation, leading to defects like chromosome fraying and fragmentation.

The researchers found that the transformation of these DNA nanorobots can be coupled with the deformation of the GUVs and the formation of synthetic channels in the model GUV membranes.

A research team from the University of California, Irvine has revealed a previously unknown mechanism that triggers an inflammatory immune response in cells when their DNA is damaged. This ...

Except for identical twins, each person's DNA is unique. This is why people can be identified using DNA fingerprinting. DNA can be cut up and separated, which can form a 'bar code' that is ...
