International team finds glucose and ribose in samples from asteroid Bennu, marking first glucose discovery in space ...

Scientists discovered ribose — in addition to “all five nucleobases used to construct both DNA and RNA” — on asteroid Bennu, ...

Scientists have revealed that asteroid Bennu is teeming with essential life molecules like ribose and glucose, significantly ...

Bennu samples reveal biological sugars, a strange, gum-like material, and ancient stardust that shed light on the early solar ...

The nitrogen in the gum was found to be in nitrogen heterocycles, which are the building blocks of nucleobases in DNA and RNA ...

It’s been hypothesized for decades that life on Earth may not have been as “homegrown” as one might think and now, we’re ...

A new technique known as ribose-seq has been developed and tested by researchers. It allows them to determine the full profile of ribonucleotides -- RNA fragments -- embedded in genomic DNA.

Outcome of Infants Younger Than 1 Year With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Treated With the Interfant-06 Protocol: Results From an International Phase III Randomized Study The DNA damage response (DDR) ...

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) was the first member of the PARP family to be identified. The PARP family now comprises 18 members. PARP1 post-translationally modifies itself and a range of ...

New research suggests that the sugar ribose -- the “R” in RNA -- is probably found in comets and asteroids that zip through the solar system and may be more abundant throughout the universe than was ...
