DNA is fundamental to the biology of all life on Earth, but how many of us actually know what it is or what it's made of?

There’s a preprint available that shows results with commercial fluorescence nucleic acid detection kits, as well as detailing homebrew reagents that can be made in even modestly equipped labs.

ABSTRACT: This paper reviews the author’s research since 2018 on Mendel’s gene assumption. The main conclusion is that Morgan’s misreading of Mendel’s gene assumption would lead to the inevitable ...

In addition, non-canonical structures are often associated with DNA damage and genomic instabilities, which are common mechanisms for certain cancers. To be precise, secondary nucleic acid structures ...

Impact As a nucleic acid, EAA can be easily synthesized with nucleic acid therapeutics, enabling their efficient loading on exosomes without conjugation or modification orthogonal to CD63-binding ...

Scientists often need to label nucleic acids such as RNA and DNA during experiments. Methods can be enzymatic or chemical.

Advanced smart nanoparticles enhance the delivery of nucleic acid therapeutics to cancer cells, addressing many of the barriers that have hindered their clinical applications, according to a ...
