Nucleic acids are complex biological molecules that store and transmit genetic information in all living organisms. They are essential for the survival and reproduction of life on Earth. The two main ...

A researcher is developing a patent-pending platform technology called LENN that mimics the dual-layer structure of viruses to deliver nucleic acid (NA)-based therapies to targeted cancer cells. A ...

Guanine quadruplexes (G-quadruplexes or G4s) are unusual nucleic acid structures with distinct biological and chemical functions. They have occupied significant attention in the nucleic acid world ...

Published, peer-reviewed research shows a patent-pending, virus-mimicking platform technology developed at Purdue University ...

A research team has found that compounds in the nucleic acids derived from food can inhibit the growth of certain cancer cells. When people eat, they ingest the nucleic acids that reside in all living ...

DNA is the poster child for high-specificity binding. As long as their base sequences match, two complementary strands of DNA can navigate through a sea of biomolecules, find each other, and hold fast ...

The development of cell and gene therapies faces immense pressure in terms of time and cost. Advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs) demand stringent quality control measures to ensure safety and ...

A research team at The University of Osaka revealed that the loss of heterochromatin can cause a chain reaction leading to ...
