Repurposing the Inverse Electron Demand Diels Alder chemistry to create robust DNA-based devices that operate effectively within living cells.
From Code to Fold – Potential of DNA in Crafting Protein Mimics
By leveraging different DNA scaffolds as templates, with variations in subunit numbers, peptide orientations, and organic junctions, researchers gain unprecedented access to untapped peptide sequence spaces.
Using Geometry to Inhibit Signaling in Cancer Cells
Using DNA molecules to build cool structures for novel drugs.
Detecting SARS-CoV-2 using Lettuce, not the vegetable
With the continued prevalence of Covid-19, development of new and improved detection methods of the virus is an important step forward in simplifying diagnosis and treatment. This article explores the use of DNA aptamers as a viral detection tool.
No More Burnt Bridges: DNA Nanoengines Designed to Perform Multiple Cycles
The authors here present the next step in artificial nanoengines – an engine that can perform multiple cycles over the same path.
Ancient biochemistry—your four billion year old ribosome!
Four billion years ago the Earth cooled, cyanobacteria gave us our oxygen-rich atmosphere, and your ribosomes started synthesizing proteins!
Capturing a new form of DNA: i-motif DNA structures and where to find them
A new form of DNA was found in vivo. It can be a way to regulate the DNA replication and thus prevent the replication of tumor cells.
