First molecular movie captures DNA unzipping at atomic level
DNA
University of Leicester Mar 21 2025 Scientists at the University of Leicester have captured the first detailed "molecular movie" showing DNA being unzipped at the atomic level – revealing how cells begin the crucial process of copying their genetic material. The groundbreaking discovery, published in the prestigious journal Nature , could have far-reaching implications, helping us to understand how certain viruses and cancers replicate. Using cutting edge cryo-electron microscopy, the team of
