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

Chances are you've seen an illustration of DNA's double-helix structure and even pictures of the chromosomes that comprise the human genome. But where and how does the famous double helix fit into ...

When a cell divides, it makes a copy of its DNA instructions for the new cell. The twisted double strand structure -- the famed double helix -- unwinds and the strands separate. The nucleotides (A ...

In 1953, Francis Crick and James Watson described the molecular shape of DNA as a "double helix." Double-stranded DNA is composed of two linear strands that run opposite to each other, known as ...

The double helix is a description of the molecular shape of a double-stranded DNA molecule. In 1953, Francis Crick and James Watson first described the molecular structure of DNA, which they ...

Researchers, led by Penn State biologists, have comprehensively predicted the location of potential non-B DNA structures in ...
