Scientists have provided the most detailed account yet of the earliest stages of DNA replication, an essential process for ...

For the first time, scientists have witnessed the very moment DNA begins to unravel, revealing a necessary molecular event ...

Water shortens the shelf life of DNA. Biosample integrity is questionable for samples stored in a wet environment owing to the persistent risk of DNA hydrolysis, even at low temperature.

Rather, DNA was first identified in the late 1860s ... Based upon years of work using hydrolysis to break down and analyze yeast nucleic acids, Levene proposed that nucleic acids were composed ...
