Scientists are exploring how DNA’s physical structure can store vast amounts of data and encode secure information.

What if the smallest molecule of life became the ultimate medium for digital storage? Faced with the avalanche of data flooding the planet, researchers are exploring the physical structure of ...

DNA's iconic double helix does more than "just" store genetic information. Under certain conditions, it can temporarily fold ...

DNA, the blueprint of life, is best known for its fundamental role as genetic material—storing and transmitting biological information through the precise sequence of its bases. For decades, this ...

This biography of the 1962 Nobel Prize-winning scientist reveals a mighty intellect who loved the arts as much as science.

DNA is the blueprint of life. Genes encode proteins and serve as the body's basic components. However, building a functioning ...

A blue-and-gray 3D representation of a strand of DNA with other strands floating in the background. Google has officially released its AlphaGenome machine learning model, which can predict the ...

Scientists developed a light-responsive artificial nucleic acid that enables reversible, controllable crosslinking within DNA, opening doors for nanomedicine, DNA nanotechnologies and drug delivery.

Beef jerky and some woolly mammoths have at least one thing in common: Drying turns their DNA into super-tough glass. This glassy DNA is so stable that it preserved the three-dimensional structure of ...
