The origins of modern structural biology date back to the 1910s, when the German physicist Max von Laue discovered that biological crystal samples irradiated with X-rays produced diffraction patterns ...

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 ...

Nucleic acids are essential for all forms of life, and it is found in all cells. Nucleic acids come in two natural forms called deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA). Image Credit: ...

Chemistry is the study of matter and its behavior. The chemistry of life involves four main types of macromolecules: carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids, which are essential building ...

Site-directed spin labeling (SDSL) provides local structural and dynamic information about a macromolecule via electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy measurements of a stable nitroxide ...

Introducing therapeutic nucleic acids into cells is a way to potentially fix the genetic causes of diseases such as Down’s syndrome and cystic fibrosis. Scientists have designed synthetic materials to ...

Nucleic acids are long chains of nucleotides found in all living organisms. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA) are two common nucleic acids responsible for providing genetic ...

Due to the COVID 19 pandemic and the associated intensive search for therapeutics and vaccines, the chemical substance class of nucleosides is experiencing an enormous increase in interest. Natural ...
