Molecular assembly structure of YH dipeptides on graphite and MoS₂; associated three-dimensional hydration structures surrounding peptide assemblies; simulated assembly structure and water density ...

The nucleolus is where ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is transcribed, processed, and assembled into the building blocks of ribosomes, the molecular machines that make proteins. Researchers discovered that rRNA ...

Scientists have twisted DNA into programmable nanostructures that form themselves — and could reshape future materials for light, sound, and electronics.

Can you imagine a life-saving molecule whose “twin” is a deadly poison? As surprising as it may seem, this chemical reality is known as “chirality”. Like a right hand and a left hand, two molecules ...

A new study shows that over 99% of the human genome can be accurately assembled by focusing on 65 diverse humans.

Researchers use DNA nanotechnology to build layered lattice structures that produce new interference patterns with unique physical properties and nanoscale control.
