Scripps Research scientists have discovered how some tumors endure DNA damage, revealing a potential new way to target them. The DNA inside our cells is constantly exposed to damage, and one of the ...

Most biochemistry labs that study DNA isolate it within a water-based solution that allows scientists to manipulate DNA without interacting with other molecules. They also tend to use heat to separate ...

Fluorogenic DNA aptamers produce light only in the correct structural state, enabling programmable molecular logic, ...
