As tough as medieval chainmail armor and as soft as a contact lens. This material is not taken from science fiction, it is a ...

When DNA breaks, cells must repair it accurately to prevent harmful mutations. Researchers have discovered that during a key ...

Inside every human cell, six feet of DNA folds into a nucleus that is only a few micrometers wide, yet still manages to ...

DNA- and RNA-binding proteins (DRBPs) constitute a significant fraction of cellular proteins and have important roles in cells. Their functions include control of transcription and translation, DNA ...

Inside cells, DNA twists and coils itself into a variety of different secondary structures—including i-motifs (iMs) and ...

The structure of the B-form DNA double helix has been known for over 60 years 1, yet DNA metabolism requires deviations, sometimes extreme, from this canonical form 2,3,4. Studies of DNA are typically ...

Fluorogenic DNA aptamers produce light only in the correct structural state, enabling programmable molecular logic, biosensing, DNA origami integrity reporting, and reusable mRNA detection through ...

DNA–protein cross-links (DPCs) represent a severe form of DNA damage that can disrupt essential chromatin-based processes.
