dynamic DNA nanotechnology relies upon the combination of DNA self-assembly with DNA strand displacement reactions. Taken together, these DNA devices are capable of altering their state following ...

"If this affects DNA strand separation, all protein interactions with DNA are also going to be affected," Marko said. "For example, the tendency for proteins to stick to specific sites on DNA and ...

Each time a cell divides, the two resulting daughter cells must contain exactly the same genetic information, or DNA, as the parent cell. To accomplish this, each strand of existing DNA acts as a ...

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 ...
