In vivo base editing enables precise, single-nucleotide changes to DNA without double-strand breaks. A recent application in ...

Our genomic DNA is comprised of four bases—cytosine (C), thymine (T), guanine (G) and adenosine (A). These bases join together into approximately 3 billion different base pairs, arranged in a ...

image: Red arrows indicate the nuclear spin axes at the positions of the N3 nitrogen atoms on the guanine (G) bases. Due to the helical structure of DNA, there is an angular deviation in the ...

Powerful new applications of what is known as next-generation sequencing are now helping with identification of degraded ...

However, under certain conditions, a single strand of DNA can fold into a G-quadruplex (G4) structure, which looks like a knot. These knots often form in regions with many guanine (G) bases.

But while experts now know a fair amount about ancient Egyptian life, they still understand very little about the ...

DNA is composed of four types of nucleotides, or bases, each designated by a letter: adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G), and cytosine (C) – or CGAT for short. These bases intertwine in a spiral ...

To date, people have encoded information into DNA the same way nature has, by linking the four nucleotide bases comprising DNA—A, T, C, and G—into a particular genetic sequence.

Scientists have found a way to sample DNA out of the air on a large scale — making it possible to one day track the health and well being of all kinds of species around the world.

The bases of the two strands of DNA are stuck together to create a ladder-like shape. Within the ladder, A sticks to T, and G sticks to C to create the “rungs.” ...
