Exactly 66 years ago, on April 25, 1953, Francis Crick and James Watson published their famous article that showed that the shape of DNA is a double helix. They weren’t able to see DNA directly ...

We looked at the inverse problem: we started from the DNA’s response to aggressive stresses, such as the forced unzipping of the double helix, to recover the details of the thermodynamics.

During DNA replication, the classic double helix can temporarily rearrange into an alternative structure known as a DNA three-way junction (3WJ). These configurations form a well-defined central ...

New research lets would-be DNA origami masters design the shape — while an algorithm determines where to put our friends A, T, G, and C. If you want to print something a few inches tall ...

Seventy years ago, a trio of scientific papers announcing the discovery of DNA’s double helix was published. Watson, Crick and Wilkins won the Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine in 1962 for ...

The book is "The Secret of Life: Rosalind Franklin, James Watson, Francis Crick, and the Discovery of DNA's Double Helix." Howard Markel, always great to see you. Dr. Howard Markel: ...

Scientists propose “DNA of the universe” is gap in Einstein’s hunt for unified physics theory Physicists say they detected a double helix in the fabric of spacetime ...

Still, if her image led Watson to realize DNA was a double helix, then Watson and Crick committed a faux-pas when they didn't cite Franklin in their landmark paper.
