Nucleic acids are chains of nucleotides that are a vital part of all living beings. The two most common types of nucleic acids are deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA), which provide ...

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 ...

The intracellular environment is highly compartmentalized; biomolecules (nucleic acids, proteins, lipids and so on) are spatiotemporally organized to form functional modules, signal pathways and ...

Endosomal and cytosolic nucleic acid receptors sense microbial nucleic acids and initiate innate immune responses. However, in some circumstances their activation by endogenous nucleic acids can also ...

Some biologists have long hoped that small pieces of RNA that silence genes could help wipe out genetic diseases. But developing nucleic acid medications with good drug properties, such as selectivity ...

Whether one is elucidating biological mechanisms, correcting a faulty gene, or modulating gene expression, artificially introducing nucleic acids into cells requires an efficient and nontoxic delivery ...
