DNA-nanoparticle motors are exactly as they sound: tiny artificial motors that use the structures of DNA and RNA to propel ...

Researchers led by François Fuks - Laboratory of Cancer Epigenetics, ULB Faculty of Medicine, ULB-Cancer Research Center and Jules Bordet Institute, H.U.B. - have discovered a new mechanism which ...

DNA transcription is the vital first step needed for switching on our genes. For a gene to be switched on, it must be acted ...

Our genes contain all the instructions our body needs to function, but their expression must be finely regulated to guarantee that each cell performs its role optimally.

Researchers leverage their understanding of molecular motors to improve nanoscale artificial motors, aiming to bridge the ...

This discovery, along with the identification of other nitrogenous bases, laid the foundation for our understanding of DNA and RNA structure. Cytosine can be synthesized chemically or isolated from ...

DNA & RNA isolation, PCR/qPCR, Qubit fluorometry, gene expression and drug development studies. Consultative services are also available.

DNA-nanoparticle motors are exactly as they sound: tiny artificial motors that use the structures of DNA and RNA to propel motion by enzymatic RNA degradation. Essentially, chemical energy is ...

The surprising paradigm shift could lead to much more protective sunscreens and effective skin treatments.
