Nucleic acids are chains of nucleotides that are a vital part of all living beings. The two most common types of nucleic acids are deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA), which provide ...

The intracellular environment is highly compartmentalized; biomolecules (nucleic acids, proteins, lipids and so on) are spatiotemporally organized to form functional modules, signal pathways and ...

Nucleic acids are complex biological molecules that store and transmit genetic information in all living organisms. They are essential for the survival and reproduction of life on Earth. The two main ...

Endosomal and cytosolic nucleic acid receptors sense microbial nucleic acids and initiate innate immune responses. However, in some circumstances their activation by endogenous nucleic acids can also ...

A research team has found that compounds in the nucleic acids derived from food can inhibit the growth of certain cancer cells. When people eat, they ingest the nucleic acids that reside in all living ...

DNA is the poster child for high-specificity binding. As long as their base sequences match, two complementary strands of DNA can navigate through a sea of biomolecules, find each other, and hold fast ...

A novel method for isothermal amplification of nucleic acids has been developed by researchers from Xuchang University (Xuchang, China). The method could be used for detection of pathogens. A novel ...

JABSOM Cell and Molecular Biology researcher Dr. Jesse Owens has spent the better part of two decades chasing a vision that began with the revolutionary idea that DNA can move itself. Now, his team's ...

The Purdue University Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBC) reviews research protocols involving the use of recombinant DNA (rDNA), synthetic nucleic acids, and/or biohazardous agents that present a ...

Correlation of cell-free circulating DNA, RNA, and PD-L1 from plasma with clinical response in patients with metastatic lung and breast cancers. This is an ASCO Meeting Abstract from the 2017 ASCO ...
