Researchers have mapped non-B DNA motifs in the genomes of great apes, highlighting their potential role in genome evolution, ...

Among the major classes of RNAs in the cell, tRNAs remain the most difficult to characterize via deep sequencing approaches, as tRNA structure and nucleotide modifications can each interfere with cDNA ...

Engineers and biologists at Dartmouth College have found that, just like word order affects meaning in a sentence, the ...

Before cells divide, they replicate the double-stranded DNA of each chromosome. The replication machinery does a good job of copying the nucleotide sequences until it gets to the telomeres, the end ...
