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.

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.

One of the most familiar shapes in science is DNA’s double helix structure. First discovered in 1953, this structure uncovered a wealth of information about our genes and the DNA molecules that encode ...

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.

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 ...

What is it, biologically, that makes me 'me'? The biggest reason is our unique genes, our so-called 'DNA.' DNA is known to form a 'double helix' structure, where two strands are paired and twisted.

OneSubsea™, a Cameron and Schlumberger company, Helix Energy Solutions Group, Inc. and Schlumberger today announced that they have entered into a letter of intent to form an alliance to develop ...

(Nanowerk News) Scientists have identified where a four-stranded version of DNA exists within the genome of human cells, and suggest that it may hold a key to developing new, targeted therapies for ...

A four-stranded version of DNA that exists within the genome of human cells has been identified. Scientists suggest that it may hold a key to developing new, targeted therapies for cancer. In work ...
