The RSC Nucleic Acids Group invites you to their Forum meeting, which will take place in-person at the RSC's iconic Burlington House in London. This is the NAG’s annual meeting, bringing together the ...

By sensing viral nucleic acids and producing type I interferons, plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) are key mediators of antiviral immunity. But pDCs might also contribute to autoimmune disease ...

Nucleic acids articles from across Nature Portfolio Nucleic acids (DNA or RNA) are polymers of nucleotides – each nucleotide consists of a pentose sugar, a phosphate group and one of the ...

By feeding locusts amino acids labeled with the heavy hydrogen isotope deuterium, the researchers identified phenylalanine as the molecule that kicks off 4VA production.

Engineering modifiers of protein-nucleic acid interactions An example of inhibitory RNA aptamers binding the NF-kappaB transcription factor by molecular mimicry of the normal DNA target from the ...

Framework nucleic acid (FNA) nanomaterials, characterized by atomic-level precision, programmable self-assembly, and inherent biocompatibility, present a transformative platform to overcome these ...

Nucleic acid immunity involves a sophisticated set of mechanisms for identifying nucleic acids by immune receptors, playing a vital role in physiological processes. This system's dysfunction can ...

Despite the pivotal role of nucleic acids in these networks, their contributions to allostery have largely been overlooked. To address this gap, we developed ComPASS, a large-scale computational ...
