Historically, small molecule drugs have been precisely designed down to the atomic scale. Considering their relatively large complex structures, nanomedicines have lagged behind. Researchers argue ...

Certain DNA sequences can form structures other than the canonical double helix. These alternative DNA conformations—referred ...

Stomach acid is essential for digestion. However, sometimes acid-producing cells in your digestive system pump out too much acid. This can lead to complications like reflux disease and stomach ulcers.

The choice of antibiotic is typically directed by the type of bacteria you have (which can be identified with a rapid nucleic acid amplification test, or NAAT). Milder cases may be treated with a ...

Nucleic acids, for example DNA, chemically encode information with a base-4 quaternary code (A,T,C,G). Nucleic Acid Memory (NAM) is a potential alternative to silicon based memory because its ...

Radiation-induced anti-tumour immunity is mediated through cytosolic nucleic acid sensing pathways that drive the expression of interferon beta-1 (IFNB1) and proinflammatory cytokines. Methods: Human ...

Although molecular detection systems that have overcome these constraints such as Oxford Nanopore Technology (ONT) sequencers are at hand, a primary hurdle is laborious nucleic acid (NA) sample ...

This package evaluates and compares groups of nucleic acid sequences based on their sequence and functional content for effective design of regulatory elements.

Nucleic acids are the backbone of molecular biology research. As such, preservation of their integrity and purity is fundamental for genomic research. Low quality samples can lead to inconsistent ...
