Before Watson and Crick basked in Nobel glory, before The Double Helix mythologized their genius, there was the photo. Photo ...

In 1953, Francis Crick and James Watson described the molecular shape of DNA as a "double helix." Double-stranded DNA is composed of two linear strands that run opposite to each other, known as ...

The double helix is a description of the molecular shape of a double-stranded DNA molecule. In 1953, Francis Crick and James Watson first described the molecular structure of DNA, which they ...

Chances are you've seen an illustration of DNA's double-helix structure and even pictures of the chromosomes that make up the human genome. But where and how does the famous double helix fit into ...

DNA is fundamental to the biology of all life on Earth, but how many of us actually know what it is or what it's made of?

Not all DNA is in the double helix form described in textbooks since the 1950’s. Quadruple helix DNA, also known as G-quadruplex DNA, was identified in the human genome several decades ago, and ...

The Race for the Double Helix, a 1987 made-for-television film that dramatizes the discovery of the structure of DNA by the legendary duo James Watson and Francis Crick in 1953. The film stars Jeff ...
