While most known types of DNA damage are fixed by our cells’ in-house DNA repair mechanisms, some forms of DNA damage evade repair and can persist for many years, new research shows. This means that ...

Despite these advances, the synthesis of DNA nanostructures has remained a largely manual and time-consuming process. Traditional approaches often require the precise mixing of hundreds of unique DNA ...

A dissertation study at the University of Jyväskylä (Finland) developed two-dimensional fishnet-like structures from DNA ...

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

A new paper based on long-lost documents confirms that DNA discoverer Rosalind Franklin should be credited for discovering the double helix. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

Research has found a less expensive and easier to use test to learn more about forensic touch DNA. This research has important implications for forensic investigations and being able to identify DNA ...

Rosalind Franklin’s role in the discovery of the structure of DNA may have been different than previously believed. Franklin wasn’t the victim of data theft at the hands of James Watson and Francis ...
