For the first time, researchers have filmed in real time the disassembly of DNA at the atomic scale. This strand separation ...

which is more compact than normal DNA. Using cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), a team of structural and molecular biologists at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) set out to ...

The trunk of each 'Christmas tree' (a transcription unit) represents a DNA molecule; the tree branches (granular strings attached to the DNA) are RNA molecules that have been transcribed from the DNA.

A University of Iowa-led study has revealed the unexpected structure adopted by the DNA repair protein RAD52 as it binds and ...

Scientists have provided the most detailed account yet of the earliest stages of DNA replication, an essential process for ...

Using cutting-edge cryo-electron microscopy, scientists at the University of Leicester have captured the first detailed “molecular movie” showing DNA being unzipped at the atomic level. The movie ...

For the first time, scientists have witnessed the very moment DNA begins to unravel, revealing a necessary molecular event for DNA to be the molecule that codes all life.

Scientists at the University of Leicester have captured the first detailed “molecular movie” showing DNA being unzipped at ...

Scientists have captured the first detailed 'molecular movie' showing DNA being unzipped at the atomic level -- revealing how cells begin the crucial process of copying their genetic material.

A single DNA nucleotide, the base unit of the human ... it much too small to be identified by even the most powerful electron microscope. So how, then, do researchers determine the sequence ...

If DNA is a book, then how is it read? Learn more about the DNA transcription process, where DNA is converted to RNA, a more portable set of instructions for the cell. The process of transcription ...
