We've now zoomed in enough to see portions of the DNA strand. The DNA is wrapped around ... were able to piece together the first accurate model of DNA. Shown here is the structure of naked ...

He added that to the model, so that matching base pairs interlocked ... Watson and Crick showed that each strand of the DNA molecule was a template for the other. During cell division the two ...

(Note that a third model of recombination ... Once access has been gained, Rad51 polymerizes on the DNA strand to form what is called a presynaptic filament, which is a right-handed helical ...

Encoding information in DNA has long seemed like a promising way to secure data for the long term, but so far it has required an expert touch.

The tethered DNA strand was comprised of a double-stranded (dsDNA ... “This experiment is really the nail in the coffin of this model where everything is sitting stably on the DNA,” van Oijen said. He ...

These predictions were as follows: According to the semiconservative model, after one round of replication, every new DNA double helix would be a hybrid that consisted of one strand of old DNA ...

DNA polymerase enzymes use the existing DNA strand as a template and add the complementary nucleotides, including thymine, to the growing new strand. Mutations involving thymine can occur during DNA ...

Zettabytes—that’s 10 21 bytes—of data are currently generated every year. All of those cat videos have to be stored somewhere, and DNA is a great storage medium; it has amazing data density ...

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae meiosis, programmed DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs ... These findings suggest a molecular model ...

CRISPR gene editing can have unforeseen consequences on the structure of chromosomes, says the University of Zurich.
