By tagging each DNA or RNA molecule and allowing neighboring tags to interact, the technique constructs a molecular network that encodes their relative positions, creating a spatial map of genetic ...

Among the many marvels of life is the cell's ability to divide and thus enable organisms to grow and renew themselves. For ...

Let's take a look at how to observe cells under a microscope. No prizes for guessing the first thing you'll need: a microscope. But don't worry if you don't have one of your own. Ask your school ...

Some histones function as spools for the thread-like DNA to wrap around. Under the microscope in its extended form, chromatin looks like beads on a string. The beads are called nucleosomes.

“To be able to see that kind of a view of nature from within a specimen is exhilarating.” DNA microscope creates 3D images of organisms from the inside out. (Image: Weinstein Lab, University of ...

When scientists isolated the kinetoplast using density gradients and centrifugation, collected the DNA content on grids, and studied it under the electron microscope, they discovered that the kDNA ...

This study shows that “one can use a very simple imaging device such as the mobile phone to record DNA sequencing reactions,” said coauthor Mats Nilsson of Stockholm University in Sweden. The ...

Therefore, we investigated the use of alkynes as tags for imaging under a Raman microscope. We paid attention to Edu(5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine） as a molecule, which contains an alkyne. It is known ...
