Physicians treating patients with Crohn's disease face a plethora of drug choices. Yet, overall rates of clinical response seem stable over time,1 suggesting the existence of a therapeutic ceiling ...

A close bond in a shared environment Almost all twins, even “identical” ones, show some differences in physical, mental and emotional traits.

The bond itself and its location at the specific synapses that were activated during learning are preserved, allowing a new partner to slot itself in, perpetuating the alliance over time. Individually ...

Nucleotides are composed of three distinctive parts: a sugar molecule, a phosphate group and one of the four nucleobases adenine, thymine, guanine and cytosine.

In addition, the presence of multiple hydrogen bonds in guanine enabled the formation of a two-dimensional nanosheet with controllable types of nitrogen dopants.

In this study, a two-step optimization process was employed to develop a Cytosine to Guanine Base Editor (CGBE) specifically tailored for watermelon, integrating human APOBEC3A (hA3A) deaminase ...

DNA computing is a new computing method that has high efficiency in solving large-scale nonlinear and Non-deterministic Polynomial complete problems. The design of DNA sequences is an important step ...
