32 P-label is introduced by incoming dGT 32 P molecule. The arrows indicate the sites of enzymatic hydrolysis. The bases of the template DNA strand are designated as clear boxes, and the bases in the ...

Researchers at Purdue's Birck Nanotechnology Center have shown how "nanopore channels" can be used to rapidly and precisely detect specific sequences of DNA as a potential tool for genomic ...

We have created double-stranded oligonucleotide arrays to perform highly parallel investigations of DNA–protein interactions. Arrays of single-stranded DNA oligonucleotides, synthesized by a ...

Using an atomic force microscope tip as a pen and different single-stranded DNA as inks, scientists at Northwestern University have demonstrated a technique that could lead to the ultimate ...

Carnegie Mellon University researchers have developed a synthetic molecule that can recognize and bind to double-stranded DNA or RNA under normal physiological conditions. The molecule could provide a ...

Researchers in China have developed a new method that allows them to insert long stretches of DNA into a genome. The process, named GRAND editing, is one of a handful of new systems aimed at using two ...

Engineers have developed a method that allows pre-designed sequences of DNA to autonomously grow and concatenate along specific assembly routes, hence providing the basis for a new generation of ...

In a way, sequencing DNA is very simple: There's a molecule, you look at it, and you write down what you find. You'd think it would be easy—and, for any one letter in the sequence, it is. The problem ...

Nucleic acids are complex biological molecules that store and transmit genetic information in all living organisms. They are essential for the survival and reproduction of life on Earth. The two main ...
