Cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) has enabled researchers to study how the DNA replication machinery assembles at sites where DNA is damaged. Cellular DNA is continuously exposed to both ...

Peering inside cells has been an integral part of biology ever since the 17th century, when cells were discovered under a microscope. But even with advances in light and electron microscopy ...

It’s the most famous corkscrew in history. Now an electron microscope has captured the famous Watson-Crick double helix in all its glory, by imaging threads of DNA resting on a silicon bed of nails.

Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard. Electron microscopes, too, can see DNA in cells, and DNA sequencers can determine the A’s, T’s, C’s, and G’s (nucleotides) it’s made of.

DNA evidence links Rex Heuermann, the alleged Long Island serial killer, to six of the seven murders he’s charged with. Why may it not be admitted in court?
