Study reveals intricate molecular detail of human DNA repair process by Emily Packer and George Litchfield, eLife edited by Lisa Lock, reviewed by Robert Egan Editors' notes ...

DNA is the molecular basis of heredity, the inherited traits that pass between generations in a person's family tree. Embodied in the sequence of base pairs, DNA carries information between ...

In biology, a token can correspond to a DNA base pair or an amino acid [the molecular building blocks for proteins]. As an undergrad, Hie studied English literature and poetry. “The affinity for ...

In DNA double helices, Hoogsteen (HG) base pairing is an alternative mode of Watson–Crick (WC) base pairing. HG bp has a different hydrogen bonding pattern than WC bp. We investigate here the binding ...

News Release 2-Dec-2024 UBCO researchers engineer DNA to mimic biological catch bonds “Fish-hook” system holds promise for advanced materials and health-care applications Peer-Reviewed Publication ...

We found that a single base-pair C-C mismatch enhances DNA bendability and nucleosome mechanical stability for the 601-nucleosome positioning sequence. An increase in force required for DNA unwrapping ...

The discovery of DNA structure by James Watson and Francis Crick in the year 1953 is one of the most revolutionary scientific discoveries to date. However, the research leading to the discovery of ...

DNA encodes all genetic information, and is the blueprint from which all biological life is created. And that’s only in the short-term. In the long-term, DNA is a storage device, a biological flash ...
