Later it was found that the sugar in nucleic acid can be ribose or deoxyribose, giving two forms: RNA and DNA. In 1943, American Oswald Avery proved that DNA carries genetic information.

Professor Kojima-Yuasa's team used compounds of nucleic acids derived from salmon milt DNA and torula yeast RNA and showed that chemical compounds like guanosine could prevent the proliferation of ...

Samples from NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission show the asteroid Bennu had organic molecules and minerals and possibly salty water and other life ingredients.

In contrast to invasive blood draws or tissue biopsies, saliva represents an easily accessible source of total nucleic acids—DNA and RNA from both the host and microbial sources. The OMNIgene™•SALIVA ...

His approach was to observe the differences in nucleic acid (DNA and RNA) metabolism among protozoa, normal human cells, and abnormal cells (e.g., cancer cells, bacteria and viruses). Hoping to ...
