In a way, sequencing DNA is very simple: There's a molecule, you look at it, and you write down what you find. You'd think it would be easy—and, for any one letter in the sequence, it is. The problem ...

Genomic DNA is organized into chromatin via nucleosomes, regulating its accessibility for critical biological processes such as transcription, replication, and epigenetic modification. The dynamic ...

A research team led by the A*STAR Genome Institute of Singapore (A*STAR GIS) have developed a method to accurately and efficiently read DNA containing non-standard bases—a task once thought too ...

Scientists are exploring how DNA’s physical structure can store vast amounts of data and encode secure information.

The sequence pattern matters: Interruptions or “hitches” and loss of these within the C-A-G repeat and C-C-G repeat stretches play a major role as to when symptoms start with loss of interruptions ...

DNA, the blueprint of life, is best known for its fundamental role as genetic material—storing and transmitting biological information through the precise sequence of its bases. For decades, this ...

Engineered DNA can store massive amounts of data while also encrypting it, opening the door to ultra-secure, long-term ...
