Computer simulations help materials scientists and biochemists study the motion of macromolecules, advancing the development of new drugs and sustainable materials. However, these simulations pose a ...

A study has found that an ancient protein motif that binds to nucleic acids is functionally "ambidextrous." This means that ...

Nucleic acids (DNA or RNA) are polymers of nucleotides – each nucleotide consists of a pentose sugar, a phosphate group and one of the nitrogenous bases (purines and pyrimidines). Nucleic acids ...

If DNA bridges persist between chromosomes during cell division, chromosomes are abnormally segregated, leading to genetic ...

Researchers utilized recently published telomere-to-telomere genomes of humans, chimpanzees, bonobos, gorillas, and two orangutans to predict where DNA sequences might form alternative structures ...

Over the past decade, lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) have become a cornerstone in the field of nucleic acid delivery, with applications extending from vaccines ...
