The aim of this meeting is to bring together the UK Nucleic Acids Research community to discuss new research at the chemistry-physics-biology interface that involves the study of nucleic acids. The ...

An international, residential meeting at historic Queens’ College in the heart of Cambridge with on-site accommodation and excellent auditorium, poster and exhibition areas. This is the 7th in a ...

Nucleic acids are complex biological molecules that store and transmit genetic information in all living organisms. They are essential for the survival and reproduction of life on Earth. The two main ...

Peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) represent a revolutionary class of synthetic nucleic acid analogues, in which the traditional sugar–phosphate backbone is replaced by a neutral N-(2-aminoethyl) glycine ...

To obtain high-quality, purified nucleic acids, scientists can use several different methods, including phenol-chloroform extraction, cesium chloride/ethidium bromide (CsCl/EtBr) gradient ...

Nucleic acids are essential for the functioning and development of living organisms. DNA carries genetic information that determines traits such as eye color and susceptibility to diseases in humans, ...

At the heart of molecular biology is the study of genetic material – DNA and RNA – which serve as the fundamental blueprints for life. These nucleic acids are not only essential for understanding how ...

The chemical origin of life on Earth is a puzzle that scientists have been trying to piece together for decades. Many hypotheses have been proposed to explain how life came to be and what chemical and ...

Nucleic acids are long chains of nucleotides found in all living organisms. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA) are two common nucleic acids responsible for providing genetic ...
