What’s the story behind DNA melting temperature analysis? UV-Visible absorption spectroscopy can be used to assess the characteristics of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), a naturally occurring polymer ...

For decades, biology textbooks taught that DNA’s story could be told with a single image: two elegant strands twisting in a ...

Long before modern medicine named and cataloged human herpesviruses, at least one of them was already quietly embedding ...

Ansa Biotechnologies’ CEO Daniel Lin-Arlow’s passion is helping scientists do their job faster and deliver their innovation to the world. His latest solution? Enzymatic DNA synthesis. DNA writing is ...

An engineering researcher at RIT has discovered the means to process data using DNA. Their biocomputing design is a breakthrough that builds on innovative DNA engineering and computing system advances ...

DNA, the language of biology, is driving all synthetic biology applications, from animal-free meat to life-saving therapeutics. It should come as no surprise that DNA synthesis is a hot and ...

Randomness inside cells can decide whether a cancer returns after chemotherapy or whether an infection survives antibiotics.

While the central dogma of molecular biology outlines the linear flow of genetic information from DNA to RNA to proteins (black lines), glycomics introduces a “3rd code of life”—glycans—that operates ...

Biology has always been an unruly science. Cells divide when they want to. Genes switch on and off like temperamental lights.

The DNA mutations that drive evolution are generally thought to be fairly random, but a new study suggests there’s some order to the chaos. Comparing the genomes of hundreds of plants grown in a lab, ...
