One longstanding problem has sidelined life-saving drugs, stalled next-generation batteries, and kept archaeologists from ...

For more than a century, scientists have relied on crystallography—analyzing X-ray diffraction patterns—to uncover ...

Certain DNA sequences can form structures other than the canonical double helix. These alternative DNA conformations—referred ...

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 ...

Credit: Advanced Science (2025). DOI: 10.1002/advs.202416564 The researchers drew inspiration from the stability of DNA's double helix, which is maintained by hydrogen bonds between complementary ...

Following is a transcript of the video. Manny: Commercial DNA tests have been a huge trend lately. They were some of the most popular holiday gifts last year. Which makes sense, there's so much ...

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 impressive timber exterior, which employs the traditional Japanese kigumi kōhō wood-joining technique, is shaped like spreading waves, expressing creativity and innovation and resembling a DNA ...

New research predicts the location of DNA sequences that can form structures besides the canonical double helix — non-B DNA — in the recently released telomere-to-telomere genomes of the great ...
