By creating a more true-to-life representation of DNA's environment, researchers at Northwestern University have discovered that strand separation - the essential process a "resting" double helix ...

Moreover, dynamic DNA nanotechnology relies upon the combination of DNA self-assembly with DNA strand displacement reactions.

DNA can last for many centuries. A new DNA storage technology works in the laboratory with parallelizable writing processes and fast reading technology.

In a mind-boggling world first, a team of biologists and security researchers have successfully infected a computer with a malicious program coded into a strand of DNA. It sounds like science ...

Evolving DNA technology improved the odds that Suffolk police investigators would find the match that allegedly linked Rex A. Heuermann to the killings of three women whose bodies were found in ...

For the first time ever, scientists have captured a single DNA molecule replicating on video — and it’s changing the way we think about the entire process. One of the most surprising findings ...

Remember that famous DNA model. The DNA molecule is a very long strand with a gentle twist. Your visible DNA material is actually many thousands of these strands clumped together.

Fifty-nine years after James Watson and Francis Crick deduced the double-helix structure of DNA, a scientist has captured the first direct photograph of the twisted ladder that props up life.

My previous post looked at the first human gene ever discovered. In this entry, we’ll look at the other major aspect of genetics, DNA.

We are getting wind that the developers of the MinION DNA sequencer have been able to work out early issues in reliability, and intend to bring a device market later this year. Having a device ...
