Researchers achieved a new development in their studies in this new publication focusing on nano-sized robots that came from a DNA's design, now concentrate on doing wonders for biological ...

Biochemists have developed a new strategy for controlling the biological functions of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) by means of light and therefore provide a tool to investigate processes which take ...

DNA molecules have been shown to be excellent substrates for the design and construction of mechanical molecular devices that sense, actuate and exert functions when exposed to external signals 1. DNA ...

In our bodies, there are trillions of cells. From white blood cells to skin cells, each type has its own specific function which helps us perform tasks and survive. But what makes up these cells and ...

BERKELEY, CA — Scientists from the U.S. Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and the Scripps Research Institute have uncovered the role played by the least-understood part of a ...

The human genome has its own proofreaders and editors, and their handiwork is not as haphazard as once thought. When DNA's double helix is broken after damage from, say, exposure to X-rays, molecular ...

Neurons are the anatomical and functional unit of the nervous system, regulating both vital functions and higher functions. Among the very few cells in the body that do not regenerate, these cells ...
