To create color, different small DNA strands linked to fluorescent molecules (markers) that can emit either red, green or blue color are hybridized to a long complementary DNA strand on the surface.

When people think of DNA, they usually think of genes, the parts that code for proteins and drive inherited traits. But there ...

A deeper understanding of how DNA changes over generations helps scientists learn why people differ and how diseases develop.

Using DNA-modified gold nanoparticles, the team could change the material's color, opening the door for new sensors or cloaking devices.

Approximately 80% of orange cats are males, including the four orange cats owned by the Short Wave team. Scientists have long suspected that orange color was a sex-linked trait — hiding ...
