Scientists found that DNA’s phosphate groups can direct chemical reactions to make the correct mirror-image form of drug ...

Scientists at NUS have found that DNA’s phosphate groups can guide chemical reactions like molecular “hands.” Chemists at the ...

Researchers explore a basic building block used in the fabrication of many DNA nanoforms. Known as a Holliday junction, this nexus of two segments of double stranded DNA has been used to form ...

While most known types of DNA damage are fixed by our cells' in-house DNA repair mechanisms, some forms of DNA damage evade ...

DNA stands for Deoxyribonucleic Acid, the molecule that carries the genetic code of all living things. It’s found in every cell and determines everything from your looks to your body functions. In ...

Cockayne syndrome (CS) is a rare disease that causes short stature, premature aging (progeria), severe photosensitivity, and moderate to severe learning delay. A new study by researchers from the ...

The Galleri test, by American company GRAIL, can detect over 50 types of cancerous DNA with a simple blood test. How the cancer screening test works.

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 ...

DNA Full Form: The full name of DNA is Deoxyribonucleic Acid. This molecule holds the complete genetic code of living organisms. The name “Deoxyribonucleic Acid” reflects its part: “Deoxy” points to ...

Researchers at Academia Sinica, Taiwan’s national academic institution, have identified a new form of cell division that does not involve the replication of DNA. The discovery, published in the ...
