In an article published in Molecular Cell, scientists have discovered how the three-dimensional organization of DNA in our ...

This membrane defines the crease pattern, creating peaks and valleys similar to folds in traditional origami. These tubules allow the cell to extend and retract its neck-like structure quickly.

Using a technique called “DNA origami,” researchers created traps that encase large viruses—such as SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and Zika—in hopes of preventing them from infecting cells ... “It’s a ...
