WE wish to suggest a structure for the salt of deoxyribose nucleic acid (D.N.A.). This structure has novel features which are of considerable biological interest. A structure for nucleic acid has ...

Nucleic acids are complex biological molecules that store ... to form the iconic double helix structure. RNA is usually single-stranded but can form complex secondary structures through base pairing ...

To understand the structure of nucleic acid, it is important to understand the structure of the nucleotides that make up nucleic acid. A nucleotide is made up of three parts that are attached by ...

Our research focuses on all aspects of nucleic acid structure, chemistry and function employing state of the art technologies and approaches. The structure and chemistry of nucleic acids is ...

scientists at Rockefeller University have enhanced our understanding of the molecular basis of life — specifically the relationship between the structure and function of nucleic acids and proteins.

The genome structure—how genes are organized within DNA sequences in an organism—is fundamental to the processes and functions of organisms.

A study has found that an ancient protein motif that binds to nucleic acids is functionally "ambidextrous." This means that ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — A researcher in Purdue University’s College of Science is developing a patent-pending platform technology that mimics the dual-layer structure of viruses to deliver nucleic acid ...

As early as 1943 Oswald Avery proved what had been suspected: that DNA, a nucleic acid ... yielded a shadow picture of the molecule's structure, by how the X-rays bounced off its component ...

An innovative programmable tool for targeting nucleic acids has been created, utilizing a prokaryotic immune defense system—and it is not CRISPR-Cas. Russian Academy of Sciences researchers have ...

Alternative approaches, such as nucleic acid-based treatments, are being explored to address this growing concern. Osteogenic CpG oligodeoxynucleotide (iSN40) has emerged as a promising candidate ...
