DNA clamp to grab cancer before it develops

Thursday, December 19, 2013 - 15:00 in Biology & Nature

As part of an international research project, a team of researchers has developed a DNA clamp that can detect mutations at the DNA level with greater efficiency than methods currently in use. Their work could facilitate rapid screening of those diseases that have a genetic basis, such as cancer, and provide new tools for more advanced nanotechnology.
