What’s the story behind DNA melting temperature analysis? UV-Visible absorption spectroscopy can be used to assess the characteristics of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), a naturally occurring polymer ...
Thymine suffers more UV damage than uracil in lab tests, but its damage pathways could help explain its place in DNA.
A study at Texas A&M University suggests that thymine may have helped early genetic molecules survive by directing that damage into a form that was easier to reverse. The findings, published in ...
Origins of life and molecular evolution research using biophotonics to study DNA bases under ultraviolet radiation.
Science is full of clever tools that help us dig deeper into the world around us, and one of those tools is spectroscopy. Out of the many methods available, UV-Vis Spectroscopy stands out because it’s ...
