Covalent bonding is a widely understood phenomenon that joins the atoms of a molecule by a shared electron pair. But in ...

DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), the molecular "blueprint" carrying the genetic instructions that influence the growth, ...

But James Watson and Francis Crick's claim was a valid one, for they had in fact discovered the structure of DNA, the chemical that encodes instructions for building and replicating almost all ...

The study from The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, led by Prof. Sheera Adar and her graduate student Elisheva Heilbrun-Katz ...

In a study published in Nature Structural and Molecular Biology, scientists from the Department of Medical Biochemistry and ...

Cigarette smoke causes cancer primarily by damaging the DNA. A new study that mapped these damages has revealed that the way ...

Crick and Watson were trying to build a 3D model of the DNA molecule. But they were not the only ones working on finding its structure. They were competing with a team at King's College London ...

Researchers at the University of Toronto have invented a new method that uses DNA sequencing to measure metabolites. This ...

Scientists have identified a new property, interface flexibility, that controls how certain molecules naturally self-organize into crystalline supramolecular networks. This significant discovery could ...

Cigarette smoke causes cancer primarily by damaging the DNA. A new study that mapped the DNA damages caused by smoking, reveals that the way our DNA is organized and chemically modified can influence ...
