After one DNA molecule was trapped on the surface treated by APTES, the DNA molecule was stretched by pressure flow and immobilized. Credit: AIP Advances (2025). DOI: 10.1063/5.0223375 ...

When environmental stress harms DNA, it can set off a cascade of failures linked to heart conditions, neurodegeneration, and chronic inflammation. A new chemical tool developed at UC Riverside ...

The authors used a combination of super-resolution imaging techniques and liquid pressure flow to fine-tune the stretch ratio of a DNA molecule, improving the lateral resolution of side-by-side ...

To read the data, the population of DNA molecules is sequenced, and an algorithm recognizes the unique combination of oligos present in each molecule. The recognized addresses are assigned a 1 ...

Sequencing DNA by converting it into an accordion molecule Roche’s new sequencing-by-expansion instrument, due to launch in 2026, garners buzz at AGBT conference by Laurel Oldach ...

The molecule in question is known as 5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine (EdU), which was designed as a chemical stand-in for thymidine, a key nucleoside in DNA.

In 1963, Popular Science reported on the Nobel Prize-winning discovery, and Rosalind Franklin⁠—the woman who was left out of the accolades.
