A study has found that an ancient protein motif that binds to nucleic acids is functionally "ambidextrous." This means that ...

Unlike antibodies, aptamers' unique structures include hairpin regions (red), which provide stability. The image also highlights chemical modifications (yellow) that increase durability, and biotin ...

But James Watson and Francis Crick's claim was a valid one, for they had in fact discovered the structure of DNA ... that DNA, a nucleic acid, carries genetic information. But no one knew how ...

not nucleic acid, but by the late 1940s, DNA was largely accepted as the genetic molecule. Scientists still needed to figure out this molecule's structure to be sure, and to understand how it worked.
