Parasite DNA sequence hijacks cell's own repair machinery

Register Free to listen to this article Thank. Listen to this article using the player above. ✖ Like its viral cousins, a slightly parasitic DNA sequence called a retrotransposon has been discovered that borrows the cell’s own machinery to achieve its target. In a new piece that appeared online Wednesday in the magazine Naturea … Leer más

Breakthrough in DNA computing: biocompatible computers coming soon

Author profile photo

Researchers have successfully realized logic gates using DNA crystallization, a huge step forward in DNA computing. Their findings have been published in the journal Advanced Materials. Using DNA’s double cross-like motifs as building blocks, they built complex 3D crystal architectures. Logic gates are implemented in these large assemblies of 3D DNA crystals, and the output … Leer más
