DNA strand displacement circuits are inching closer to becoming cellular machines. Scientists are finding ways to make these ...

Most cells in the human body each contain about six feet of DNA. Yet the nucleus, where DNA is coiled, is no larger than a ...

During cell division the two strands separate and on each strand a new "other half" is built, just like the one before. This way DNA can reproduce itself without changing its structure -- except ...

Cells use many complex genetic repair backup systems to fix DNA damage and remain healthy throughout their lives.

A comprehensive review titled "From the Test Tube to the Cell: A Homecoming for DNA Computing Circuits?" published Mar. 4 in Intelligent Computing ...

In the double helix structure of DNA, thymine forms a base pair with adenine ... DNA polymerase enzymes use the existing DNA strand as a template and add the complementary nucleotides, including ...

They constantly untangle knots in the DNA strand and create new chemical bonds when a strand of DNA breaks somewhere in the ...

Beckwith and colleagues used a method to gently remove one strand of DNA in cells at various stages of cell division, keeping the chromosome structure intact. They could then use targeted sets of ...
