He and a colleague proved a theory advanced by the Nobel Prize winners James Watson and Francis Crick, who discovered DNA’s ...

As antibiotic-resistant "superbugs" make infections trickier to treat, some in the medical community are turning to ...

Bacteriophage lambda particle has dimensions similar to those of many mammalian viruses and recent structural evidences revealed a shared ancestry between tailed bacteriophages and mammalian DNA ...

In the current study, the scientists installed up to five distinct mutations on a single lambda phage genome without counterselection in only a few hours of hands-on time.

The team described the South American lungfish genome Aug. 14 in the journal Nature. It turns out, these air-breathing fish carry a whopping 91 billion base pairs, or letters, of DNA in their genomes.

We have developed a method for stretching phage deoxyribonucleic acids (DNAs) on a conductive graphite surface and imaging them with nanometer-scale resolution employing atomic force microscopy (AFM).

In earlier studies with phage T4, the team discovered a DNA ‘end clamp’ that prevents the entire DNA from slipping out of the procapsid. This study shows that the lambda phage also uses this mechanism ...

In this study, they found that the lambda phage shares this mechanism. If the DNA slips to the extent that it would completely fall out, it is caught by its end and prevented from detaching from ...
