Apart from carrying the information to encode proteins in, RNA molecules can adopt intricate 2D and 3D structures.

All living organisms encode the amino acid sequences of proteins as nucleotide sequences (genetic information) in their ...

As the first crystal structure of this type, the researchers say it will also be useful as a model for other targets in the genome, besides the insulin gene, which form this shape of DNA.

In biology textbooks and beyond, the human genome and DNA therein typically are taught in only one dimension. While it can be ...
