The authors confirm that telomeres in telomerase-positive cells terminate with 5'-ATC in a Pot1-dependent manner, and demonstrate that this principle holds true in telomerase-negative ALT cells as ...

Most biochemistry labs that study DNA isolate it within a water-based solution that allows scientists to manipulate DNA without interacting with other molecules. They also tend to use heat to ...

However, it is conceivable that we could also use other base modifications and thus develop an entire alphabet to describe the DNA strand," Hao Yan, one of the authors, told c't. He is head of the ...

Rather than hand-threading each DNA strand, the team assembles strands from pre-built DNA bricks about 20 nucleotides long, encoding information by altering some and not others along the way.

Led by Haichao Zhao, PhD, in the Yan Lab at UNC Charlotte, the new research shows how ATM-mediated signaling is induced by DNA single-strand breaks (SSBs) for DNA damage repair – illuminating ...

the two men created a work of art that has endured half a century, and likely won't go away any time soon. "That logo is a part of my DNA," Tom said.. "For me, it is always there, that connection.” ...

The nanorobots are held in a solution with these DNA-strand raw materials, which they arrange into copies of themselves one at a time by using their own structure as a scaffold. The team didn’t ...

A strand of hair, a DNA match and decades of detective work has solved a Red Bluff murder that has eluded investigators for the past 40 years, Tehama County officials said Wednesday. The case ...

However, for the first time, the team was able to develop a hairpin-shaped DNA strand that can activate a natural immune response to target and kill specific cancerous cells. Cancer cells can ...

A synthesized DNA strand reading ATTGC would translate back as the binary code 0011111001. But a wide variety of coding schemes have been explored. For example, two young DNA synthesis companies, ...

DNA makes this easy, because it’s made of two strands. When a cell divides the strands split up, and a new copy is made of each one. Let’s look at how this is done. The letter A on one strand ...
