To obtain high-quality, purified nucleic acids, scientists can use several different methods, including phenol-chloroform extraction, cesium chloride/ethidium bromide (CsCl/EtBr) gradient ...

Researchers from IOCB Prague have discovered a new type of substances capable of safely transporting various types of nucleic acids used for therapeutic purposes into cells, from basic building blocks ...

Nucleic acid extraction is a fundamental step in unlocking the genetic information contained within biological samples. Isolated nucleic acids are the basis for a multitude of analyses and ...

DNA is the poster child for high-specificity binding. As long as their base sequences match, two complementary strands of DNA can navigate through a sea of biomolecules, find each other, and hold fast ...

Nucleic acids are long chains of nucleotides found in all living organisms. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA) are two common nucleic acids responsible for providing genetic ...

Currently, chemotherapy is still the main clinical treatment strategy for cancer. Although it has produced significant effects, chemotherapy also has a destructive effect on normal tissues and cells, ...
