Guest molecules slice through droplets of DNA polymers in the form of a frontal wave / Basis for a better understanding of biological processes Researchers at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) ...

Knots are everywhere — from tangled headphones to DNA strands packed inside viruses — but how an isolated filament can knot itself without collisions or external agitation has remained a longstanding ...

In the movie “Jurassic Park,” scientists extracted DNA that had been preserved in amber for millions of years, and used it to create a population of long-extinct dinosaurs. Inspired partly by that ...

Molecular self-assembly is not an unusual phenomenon. As the solution's concentration increased, however, the researchers observed that the achiral polymers were not assembling into achiral structures ...

Polymers with different metal complexes in their side chains are thought to be promising high-performance materials with a wide variety of applications. However, conventional fabrication methods are ...

Molecular instructions in living cells can be timed rather like the notes or chords in a piece of music. For example, a finite number of genes can be activated and expressed in different orders, for ...
