Nucleic acids are chains of nucleotides that are a vital part of all living beings. The two most common types of nucleic acids are deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA), which provide ...

Nucleic Acids and Proteins The nucleic acid molecules inherited by the living cell bear the plan of all the cell's protein molecules. It now appears that another kind of nucleic acid plays a key role ...

The Purdue University Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBC) reviews research protocols involving the use of recombinant DNA (rDNA), synthetic nucleic acids, and/or biohazardous agents that present a ...

DNA is the poster child for high-specificity binding. As long as their base sequences match, two complementary strands of DNA can navigate through a sea of biomolecules, find each other, and hold fast ...

The intracellular environment is highly compartmentalized; biomolecules (nucleic acids, proteins, lipids and so on) are spatiotemporally organized to form functional modules, signal pathways and ...

The special issue entitled Chemical Biology of Nucleic Acids: Modifications, Interactions, and Therapeutic Applications invites top-level original papers and review articles in a wide range of areas ...

This is the second article in this series discussing HPLC oligonucleotide separations. This article will discuss the separation of oligonucleotides and dsDNAs using a wide-pore, polymer based reversed ...
