Some pathogens use temperature as a trigger and activate virulence only after entering the warmer environment of a host. A research team from Ruhr University Bochum, Germany, and the University of ...

Researchers have built a platform that programs short DNA fragments inside living cells to control protein activity, all without editing or altering the cell’s genome. The system, published in Nature ...

Stepping away from its billions-of-years-old role as a genetic blueprint, DNA is now embarking on a new journey as an active ...

Scientists used a bacterial system called retron to turn DNA into a programmable tool inside living cells, enabling gene ...

Researchers developed a retron-based system that enables DNA to function as an active intracellular tool rather than merely ...

POSTECH develops a platform for precise cellular control using "non-genetic DNA" decoupled from genetic information.

Minor groove binding compounds represent a diverse class of small molecules that interact with the DNA double helix by inserting into its narrower, minor groove. This mode of binding affords a unique ...

Tunable DNA hairpin springs stretch millions of protein copies under piconewton tension, enabling bulk biochemical discovery ...

Scientists have uncovered new DNA-binding proteins from some of the most extreme environments on Earth and shown that they can improve rapid medical tests for infectious diseases. The international ...
