Using strands of nucleic acid, scientists have demonstrated basic computing operations inside a living mammalian cell. The research could lead to an artificial sensing system that could control a cell ...

Researchers have discovered a plausible evolutionary setting in which nucleic acids – the fundamental genetic building blocks of life – could enable their own replication, possibly leading to life on ...

The rate of appearance of duplex DNA renaturation, measured with single strand specific nuclease, deviates significantly from a second order reaction. Measurements reported in paper I of this series ...

Nucleotides are the building blocks of the two nucleic acids, ribonucleic acid (RNA) and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). As such, they are also the building blocks of you and every other lifeform on ...

Researchers may have developed long-lived biological computers that could potentially persist inside cells. Researchers forgo the traditional DNA-based approach, opting instead to use the nucleic acid ...

(Nanowerk News) Using strands of nucleic acid, scientists have demonstrated basic computing operations inside a living mammalian cell. The research could lead to an artificial sensing system that ...
