DNA is genetic material found in the cell nucleus, carrying inherited information (genes) that give us our unique characteristics. Each one of our 100 million million cells contains nearly two ...

To turn genes off and on, cells use Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes (SMC) motors that act like switches to connect different parts of DNA," first author Roman Barth explains. "However ...

A new structural blueprint paves the way for improved targeting of cancer cells, particularly those with BRCA1 and BRCA2 ...

New details have emerged in the case of a Singaporean woman, Audrey Fang, who was murdered in Spain has emerged. Spanish newspaper La Opinion de Murcia reported on Mar. 4 that DNA from two men have ...

This breakthrough DNA technique allows researchers to examine ... a species of dhole that’s now only found in parts of Asia. They also found some larger species of hoofed animals as well ...

An innovative new technique developed at HHMI's Janelia Research Campus uses a novel DNA barcode system to track hundreds of ...

Each ODN in the Takumi-shaped DNA structure was constructed with an eight-18 nucleotide-long palindromic stem attached to two cohesive parts on either side with a thymidine (T) spacer. The ODNs ...

the unique DNA barcodes allow the researchers to tag each type of molecule in the sample. Each barcode contains two parts. When the two pieces match, the target is amplified by the HCR technique.
