DNA nanotechnology gets real

In the beginning there was the cube. Nadrian Seeman and coworkers at New York University set out in the early 1990s to construct a nanometre scale cube from DNA. The idea was to use the highly sophisticated methods of molecular biology to build DNA into something new and entirely artificial. Linking DNA fragments together by means of hybridisation of overlapping ends followed by ligation, Seema...

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology

Objective: To study pathophysiologic pathways in spontaneous preterm birth and possibly the racial disparity associating with maternal and fetal genetic variations, using bioinformatics tools. Methods: A large scale candidate gene association study was performed on 1442 SNPs in 130 genes in a case (preterm birth < 36 weeks) control study (term birth > 37 weeks). Both maternal and fetal DNA from...
