Rosalind Franklin, James Watson and Francis Crick discovered the structure of DNA -- that molecular blueprint for life -- over 70 years ago. Today, scientists are still uncovering new ways to read it.

A genetically encoded “live-cell” probe designed by researchers from Tokyo Tech has been able to identify phosphorylated Ser2 in the enzyme RNA polymerase II, subsequently identifying sites of the ...

A newly developed mouse model enables real-time visualization of RNA Polymerase II (RNAP2) during DNA transcription, as reported by researchers from Science Tokyo. The team engineered mice to produce ...
