Nucleic acids are fundamental biomolecules that play a crucial role in storing, transmitting, and expressing genetic information in living organisms. They are the building blocks of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid), two essential components of all known life forms.
Nucleic acids are of significant interest due to their role in genetic information transfer and their complex molecular structures. Research in this field involves studying various aspects of nucleic acids, including their physical properties, structural dynamics, and interactions with other molecules.
