How do cells detect non-self double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) molecules ... and thus function as detectors of various different PAMPs 2. Figure 1: In the innate immune system, cytoplasmic sensor ...

Based on their calculations, the team predicted that even under perfect conditions for DNA preservation, it would take a maximum of 6.8 million years for every bond to be destroyed. And even before ...

This process takes place in the nucleus and occurs in a series of stages. The two strands of the DNA helix are unzipped by breaking of the weak Hydrogen bonds between base pairs. This unwinding of ...

Scientists have identified a new property, interface flexibility, that controls how certain molecules naturally self-organize into crystalline supramolecular networks.
