Apart from the canonical Watson-Crick duplex, nucleic acids can often form other structures, e.g. G-quadruplex and triplex. These structures give nucleic acid additional functions besides coding for ...
In 1953, Cambridge researchers Watson and Crick published a paper describing the interweaving 'double helix' DNA structure - the chemical code for all life. Now, in the year of that scientific ...
Nucleic acid based molecular device is a developing research field which attracts great interests in material for building machinelike nanodevices. G-quadruplex, as a new type of DNA secondary ...
IN 1962, when David R. Davies was in his 30s, he and two coworkers at the National Institutes of Health proposed that short, guanine-rich stretches of DNA could assume unusual structures. On the basis ...
A new research paper was published in Oncotarget entitled, "G-quadruplex landscape and its regulation revealed by a new antibody capture method." In this new study, researchers Subhamoy Datta, Manthan ...
New insights into a little-understood DNA structure could provide the basis for new cancer therapies. DNA is usually depicted as double-stranded, but not much is known about parts of the genome that ...
DNA, the genetic material compacted in chromosomes, stores information to regulate all the cell processes in the body. Two decades ago, in addition to the widely known Watson-Crick double helix model ...
Designers of cancer drugs have begun to aim their arrows at an up-and-coming series of targets in the human genome: quad­ruplexes, a family of DNA structures that form in sites that switch genes on ...
Sixty years after scientists described the chemical code of life — an interweaving double helix called DNA — researchers have found four-stranded DNA is also lurking in human cells. Subscribe to read ...
