DNA is normally found as a stable, double-stranded structure. However, DNA also sometimes interacts with RNA to form RNA-DNA hybrid structures that regulate gene expression and DNA repair.

Hot springs at Lassen Volcanic National Park WIKIMEDIA COMMONS, WALTER SIEGMUND “It’s a mythological beast of a virus, but it actually exists,” virologist Ken Stedman told Nature of the virus hybrid ...

Ben Hall and Sol Speigelman carry out DNA-RNA hybridization in viral infected bacterial system. 15 Rich and colleagues publish on two RNA double helix fragments solving the structure at atomic ...

DNA and RNA, the two major modern forms of genetic code underpinning all of earthly biology, could have coexisted in strict pairings on our planet before life arose here, scientists in England ...

Using a multi-round selection process, the McMaster team uncovered an artificial DNA-RNA hybrid probe that is a substrate for a salmonella-specific form of an RNase H enzyme.

The engineered motor, with redesigned DNA/RNA sequences and a 3.8-fold increase in hybridization rate, achieved a speed of 30 ...

RNA only has one strand, but like DNA, is made up of nucleotides. RNA strands are shorter than DNA strands. RNA sometimes forms a secondary double helix structure, but only intermittently. Length : ...

They then electrically detected the single molecule RNA cancer biomarkers by hybridizing the DNA probe with the target RNA to create a DNA: RNA hybrid that bound to the scanning tunneling ...

The hybrid model could advance the knowledge of RNA manufacturing mechanisms and guide simultaneous design/control strategies at different levels, such as RNA sequence selection and specifications ...

They carry genetic instructions from DNA to ribosomes — the factories inside cells that turn amino acids into the proteins necessary for many cell functions. But Storici’s team found that RNA can also ...
