Nucleic acids (DNA or RNA) are polymers of nucleotides – each nucleotide consists of a pentose sugar, a phosphate group and one of the nitrogenous bases (purines and pyrimidines). Nucleic acids ...

Fluorescent nucleic acid base analogues (FBAs) are used widely as probes of DNA and RNA structure and dynamics. Of increasing utility are the pteridone adenosine analogues (6MAP, DMAP) and pteridine ...

Nucleic acid immunity involves a sophisticated set of mechanisms for identifying nucleic acids by immune receptors, playing a vital role in physiological ...

In vivo base editing enables precise, single-nucleotide changes to DNA without double-strand breaks. A recent application in ...

Exponential nucleic acid replication can occur isothermally in a prebiotically plausible setting that accumulates and simultaneously separates the strands of nucleic acids through evaporation-driven ...

Point-of-Care (PoC) diagnostics are transforming healthcare by enabling rapid and accessible disease detection right at the patient’s bedside. This comprehensive review examines recent advances in ...

Initially used as feed attractants, nucleotides (NT) and nucleic acids (NA) drew the attention of research and industrial communities as functional ingredients on account of their many features as ...

Correction for Smith et al., A twist grain boundary phase in aqueous solutions of the nucleic acid tetramer GTAC ...

The global demand for digital data is projected to be greater than the supply of semiconductor grade silicon in 2040 [1]. When combined with the need to archive information [2], nucleic acids are ...
