Most biochemistry labs that study DNA isolate it within a water-based solution that allows scientists to manipulate DNA without interacting with other molecules. They also tend to use heat to separate ...

Humans and baker's yeast have more in common than meets the eye, including an important mechanism that helps ensure DNA is copied correctly, reports a pair of studies. The findings visualize for the ...

BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes play a crucial role in repairing damaged DNA. Mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 substantially increase the likelihood of breast and ovarian cancer, respectively. This new research ...

DNA strands on tiny beads hide and reveal encrypted messages through programmable fluorescence patterns read by flow cytometry.

Atlas Data Storage partners with imec for advanced DNA storage and Biomemory acquires Catalog Technologies to enhance its DNA block-based printing storage technology.

DNA replication is a complex process with many moving parts. In baker's yeast, the molecular complex Ctf18-RFC keeps parts of the replication machinery from falling off the DNA strand. Human cells use ...
