The double helix is a description of the molecular shape of a double-stranded DNA molecule. In 1953, Francis Crick and James Watson first described the molecular structure of DNA, which they ...

Chances are you've seen an illustration of DNA's double-helix structure and even pictures of the chromosomes that make up the human genome. But where and how does the famous double helix fit into ...

that the DNA molecule exists in the form of a three-dimensional double helix. More than 50 years passed before the significance of Miescher's discovery of nucleic acids was widely appreciated by ...

In 2015, a 7.8 earthquake hit Nepal, killing nearly 9,000 and injuring thousands. The earthquake resulted in losses exceeding ...

New research predicts the location of DNA sequences that can form structures besides the canonical double helix — non-B DNA — ...

Certain DNA sequences can form structures other than the canonical double helix. These alternative DNA conformations—referred ...

The original model of DNA structure created by Crick and Watson Crick and Watson's feat was to realise that there are two strands that coil around each other to form a double helix. The two ...
