Discovery comes as an extension of the development of a polymer ion-gel, which promises to outperform conventional flammable liquid battery electrolytes. Researchers in the College of Science and ...

Nucleic acids such as DNA are becoming increasingly popular as versatile building blocks in nanobiotechnology as a result of their superb, predictable self-assembling properties and the high rigidity ...

Figure 1: High levels of cytosine formylation in genomic DNA are observed at CpG repeats. Here we show that 5fC is distinct from 5mC, 5hmC and 5caC in its pronounced impact on the structure of the DNA ...

James Dewey Watson, whose co-discovery of the twisted-ladder structure of DNA in 1953 helped launch a revolution in biology and medicine, died Thursday at age 97. He died in hospice care after a brief ...
