The formation of DNA adducts due to flavouring substances, particularly those derived from botanicals, has emerged as a critical area of toxicological research. Many naturally occurring compounds ...

(Top) Schematic diagram of the basic unit (Y-motif) of DNA condensates and their binding via sticky-end interaction. (Bottom) A schematic diagram illustrates how DNA condensate formation is regulated ...

Researchers at University of Tsukuba have uncovered a master transcriptional regulator that controls rhizobial symbiosis ...

Scientists have discovered that DNA behaves in a surprising way when squeezed through tiny nanopores, overturning a long-held ...

New research predicts the location of DNA sequences that can form structures besides the canonical double helix — non-B DNA — in the recently released telomere-to-telomere genomes of the great apes, ...

Scientists from Delft, Vienna, and Lausanne discovered that the protein machines that shape our DNA can switch direction. Until now, researchers believed that these so-called SMC motors that make ...

DNA's iconic double helix does more than "just" store genetic information. Under certain conditions, it can temporarily fold ...
