Chirality — the property of an object that is distinct from its mirror image — has long captivated scientists across biology, chemistry, and physics ...

Researchers utilized recently published telomere-to-telomere genomes of humans, chimpanzees, bonobos, gorillas, and two orangutans to predict where DNA sequences might form alternative structures ...

By creating a more true-to-life representation of DNA's environment, researchers at Northwestern University have discovered ...

By contrast, in a living cell DNA lives in a very crowded environment, and special proteins attach to DNA to mechanically unwind the double helix and ... then conduct high-tech imaging.

Certain DNA sequences can form structures other than the canonical double helix. These alternative DNA conformations—referred to as non-B DNA—have been implicated as regulators of cellular ...

that the DNA molecule exists in the form of a three-dimensional double helix. More than 50 years passed before the significance of Miescher's discovery of nucleic acids was widely appreciated by ...

together with high-resolution atomic force microscopy, is described. In this review, the recent progress in the synthesis of helical polymers and their structural determination by means of CD and ...

Rapidly mutating DNA regions were mapped using a multi-generational family and advanced sequencing tools. Understanding how ...

In research published in Advanced Science, investigators describe their ability to reconstruct 3D facial images from DNA data, which could have important applications in forensic investigations of ...

The Solar Orbiter has spent five years circling our closest star. On 9 March 2025, it captured its most detailed image so far. The spacecraft used its Extreme Ultraviolet Imager to photograph the ...
