Guided by the work of Rosalind Franklin, James Watson and Francis Crick discovered the the twisted-ladder structure of DNA in 1953, a finding that gave rise to the modern field of molecular biology.

DNA stands for Deoxyribonucleic Acid. It is the fundamental blueprint of life, containing genetic instructions for traits and ...

Researchers have identified the role that a four-stranded version of DNA may play in the role of cancer progression, and suggest that it may be used to develop new targeted cancer therapies.

When we think of the structure of DNA, the image that most likely comes to mind is that of the iconic double helix. This shape was identified in 1953 as DNA's most common form, and while other ...

When we learn about human genetics in high school biology class, one of the most basic things we learn about is the DNA double helix, the twisting ladder-shaped structure that holds our genetic code.

A double helix is made of two spiraling lines that are intertwined together. A famous example of a double helix is the structure of a DNA molecule. You can draw a ...

Perfection can be elusive like the wind. John Noyes can catch the wind, but he can't snare perfection with his "wind forms." Noyes, 71, has created wind forms - copper creatures and doodads spiraling ...

Proteins fold into their functional three-dimensional structure based on the information encoded in the residue sequence 1. In all domains of life, various strategies evolved to assist folding ...
