DNA is the raw material of modern medicine yet is the only part of drug development not accessible at the lab bench. DNA synthesis, the first step in most biological workflows including gene synthesis ...

There’s been this dream for decades. What if we could just print out an entire gene directly, one base at a time? —Daniel Lin-Arlow, Ansa Biotechnologies As scientists set their sights on cell and ...

Since the discovery of the double-helical structure of DNA and postulation of the central dogma of molecular biology, stating that the flow of genetic information goes from DNA to RNA to protein, the ...

Genetic medicines such as cell and gene therapies and mRNA vaccines offer extraordinary promise for treating a variety of diseases, including genetic disorders, cancer, and autoimmune diseases. These ...

This image illustrates the chemical structure of a purine molecule, highlighting the numbering of the carbon and nitrogen atoms. The purine structure consists of a pyrimidine ring (positions 1 to 6) ...

Inside every cell, a finely tuned metabolic network determines when to build, recycle, or stop producing essential molecules. A central part of this network is folate metabolism, a process that ...

Despite these advances, the synthesis of DNA nanostructures has remained a largely manual and time-consuming process. Traditional approaches often require the precise mixing of hundreds of unique DNA ...
