Beyond the ladder-like structure described above, another key characteristic of double-stranded DNA is its unique three-dimensional shape. The first photographic evidence of this shape was ...

A high resolution structure of a dodecanucleotide confirms ... comparative analyses which use the existing knowledge-base of DNA crystal structures. Some features, such as helix bending or ...

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 ...

Earlier that morning, in the nearby Cavendish laboratory, the two scientists had discovered the structure of deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA. This discovery changed the world of science and medicine ...

This way DNA can reproduce itself without changing its structure -- except for occasional errors, or mutations. The structure so perfectly fit the experimental data that it was almost immediately ...

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the information-carrying molecule found in all living organisms. In most animal, plant and fungal cells DNA is stored in the nucleus coiled up in thread-like ...

The size of the exonuclease III footprint of ligase bound to a single nick in duplex DNA is 19 to 21 nucleotides. The footprint is asymmetric, extending 8 to 9 nucleotides on the 3’-OH side of the ...

“The crystal can also withstand a direct impact ... guanine and thymine); their placement in the double helix structure of DNA; and how genes position into a chromosome, which can then be ...

In 2016, progress was made in data storage development as scientists at the University of Southampton successfully developed a 5D memory crystal capable of storing up to 360 terabytes (TB) of data, ...
