During DNA replication, the classic double helix can temporarily rearrange into an alternative structure known as a DNA three ...

For DNA to be copied, the DNA double helix must open up, and the resulting single strands—each of which serves as a template for building a new, second strand—are vulnerable to breakage. Or ...

The DNA double helix is composed of two DNA molecules whose sequences are complementary to each other. ... green or blue color are hybridized to a long complementary DNA strand on the surface.

By creating a more true-to-life representation of DNA's environment, researchers at Northwestern University have discovered that strand separation—the essential process a "resting" double helix ...

The public green spaces at Helix Park are quite the opposite. Five parks, each the size of a football field, wind through the development in the shape of a double helix, like a strand of DNA.

As a result, the translocated DNA double helix will necessarily split and unwind, an effect known as unzipping. The research team, which also includes Antonio Suma from the University of Bari, ...

To celebrate DNA, GEN is highlighting this conversation with biologist and author Matthew Cobb, who reflected on the double helix's platinum anniversary April 24, 2023 ...

Artist's impression of the DNA double helix structure. We are increasingly learning that these DNA strands can be unzipped to form new structures, affecting which genes are turned on and off in a ...

In his 1968 book "The Double Helix," Watson alleged that he saw Franklin's photograph without her knowing and upon first glance he was able to spot DNA's double-helix structure, making it appear ...

Historians have long debated the role that Dr. Franklin played in identifying the double helix. A new opinion essay argues that she was an “equal contributor.” By Emily Anthes On April 25 ...

“Double Helix,” at Bay Street Theater, illuminates the British scientist’s contributions, which became the basis for James Watson and Francis Crick’s 1953 breakthrough.
