DNAは二重らせん構造を持つことが知られていますが、結び目をもつかのような「i-motif」と呼ばれる特殊な構造があることも知られています。人の生きた細胞内でi-motifが初めて見つかったと報告されています。 BREAKING: Scientists have confirmed a new DNA structure inside ...

James Dewey Watson, the American scientist who helped discover the structure of DNA at age 25, died Thursday at his home in New York. He was 97. His son, Duncan Watson, confirmed that his father died ...

DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave. Researchers have now mapped this hidden architecture in unprecedented detail, showing ...

The genome is more than a linear code; it is a dynamic structure whose three-dimensional folding dictates how genes are regulated. Traditional sequencing technologies capture base-level variation but ...

The newly revealed structure of a key complex involved in copying DNA will lead to a better understanding of the process ...

One of the hottest topics in the life science field today is "CRISPR- Cas9". Assistant Professor Hiroshi Nishimasu and his collaborators were the first in the world to report the 3D structure of the ...

DNA isn't just a long string of genetic code, but an intricate 3D structure folded inside each cell. That means the tools used to study DNA need to be just as sophisticated-able to read not only the ...

They were hardly modest, these two brash young scientists who in 1953 declared to patrons of the Eagle Pub in Cambridge, England, that they had "found the secret of life." But James Watson and Francis ...

In 1962, James Watson and Francis Crick of the Cavendish Laboratory at the University of Cambridge, and Maurice Wilkins of King's College London were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.
