Most DNA molecules consist of two polymers (double-stranded) of four nucleotides that each consist of a nucleobase, the carbohydrate deoxyribose and a phosphate group, where the carbohydrate and ...

The sugar molecule in DNA molecules is β-D-2 deoxyribose. Here thymine (T) is present instead of uracil (U). The helical ...

Applying deoxyribose sugar to wounds led to rapid fur regrowth, prompting further investigation. Tests on mice with testosterone-driven hair loss showed the sugar gel was as effective as minoxidil ...

Abbreviations: BER, base excision repair; DSB, double-stand break; ERCC2, xeroderma pigmentosum complementing protein D; ERCC3, xeroderma pigmentosum complementing ...

A computational study has replaced the carbon in cytosine, guanine, adenine, thymine and deoxyribose with nitrogen and boron to understand what carbonless DNA might be like. The study generated a set ...

In this study, we refine the deoxyribose dihedral potential to increase the stability of the north (N) puckering present in A-DNA. The new parameters, termed OL24, model A/B equilibrium in B-DNA ...

Skin oxidation can impair physiological functions and induce skin diseases, such as photoaging and cancer. L-ascorbic acid (L-AA), or vitamin C, is commonly used in cosmetics because it is a potent ...

Statistical information is often shown using graphs and other diagrams. These can be easier to read than lists of numbers.
