DNA is a linear biopolymer, a compound biomolecule in the form of a double helix. Polymers are made of monomers, and in DNA, ...

A research team from POSTECH has developed a biodegradable polymer-based delivery system that efficiently transports mRNA.

In 1970, biochemist Robert Wells of the University of Alabama at Birmingham saw something strange in his X-ray images of a new synthetic DNA polymer. The DNA molecule was composed of the traditional ...

DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the nucleic acid polymer that forms the genetic code for a cell or virus. Most DNA molecules consist of two polymers (double-stranded) of four nucleotides that each ...

The study of nanofluidic dynamics, particularly concerning DNA and semiflexible polymers, has gained significant attention in recent years. This field explores how these molecules behave when ...

A research team has developed a biodegradable polymer-based delivery system that efficiently transports mRNA.

A research team led by Professor Won Jong Kim from the Department of Chemistry at POSTECH, in collaboration with the Korea ...

Each DNA molecule is a polymer, which consists of millions of repeating units known as nucleotides. Even though 99.9% of a person’s DNA is identical to any other person’s, there are minor variations ...

Learn about our Editorial Policies. Unlike in traditional mass cytometry, where the metal tag is bound directly to the antibody that will bind to the target, we added short DNA polymers to the ...

Polymer chains can form molecular strings ... like folded proteins and the chromosomes that bundle and store our DNA. These biological systems adopt loopy structures similar to the ring polymers ...
