PCR genetic analysis has been in the spotlight since COVID-19, but light is now further facilitating PCR-free methods.

with complementary sequences in the target DNA. This process, known as DNA hybridization, allows the matching strands to bind together, making the pairing detectable through fluorescence.

Before cells divide, they replicate the double-stranded DNA of each chromosome ... we don't just see the leading strand growing—complementary fill-in synthesis is still happening, so both ...

These compounds consist of a piece of single-stranded DNA with a base sequence that is complementary to a target messenger RNA (mRNA). By binding to their target, ASOs can prevent the production ...
