They were hardly modest, these two brash young scientists who in 1953 declared to patrons of the Eagle Pub in Cambridge, England, that they had "found the secret of life." But James Watson and Francis ...
On 25 April 1953, Watson and Crick published an article, in the acclaimed journal “Nature” titled “Molecular structure of nucleic acids: A structure for deoxyribonucleic acid”. The one-page article ...
The human genome has to be carefully organized so it will fit inside of the nuclei of cells, while also remaining accessible to the cellular machinery that works to express the right genes at the ...
Scientists from Skoltech and the University of Potsdam have developed a physical theory that sheds light on how molecular ...
DNA's iconic double helix does more than "just" store genetic information. Under certain conditions it can temporarily fold into unusual shapes. Researchers at Umeå University, Sweden, have now shown ...
A study in the Chinese Journal of Natural Medicines reports the first high-resolution structure of the major G-quadruplex in the TMPRSS2 promoter and shows how berberine binds and stabilizes it, ...
