25. April 2026: Nationaler DNA-Tag

https://www.compgen.de/2026/04/nationaler-dna-day/

I just learned that #NationalDNAday in the #UnitedStates was yesterday. I hope it's not too late to celebrate with some eye-candy depicting the hydrogen-bonding of a guanine quadruplex found in #DNA 🧬 #telomeres.

Explanation here: https://theacademic.com/unravelling-the-hydrogen-bonding-patterns-in-telomeric-g-quadruplexes-from-structure-to-function/

Today is #NationalDNADay 🧬

Here’s a look at what makes up DNA’s structure and how the genetic code is translated into proteins: https://www.compoundchem.com/2015/03/24/dna/

Happy National DNA Day! Celebrating the remarkable discoveries and progress in genetics that continue to shape our understanding of life. 🧬 #NationalDNADay #Genetics #Science

#NationalDNADay 🧬 As cells divide, they must copy all of their chromosomes once and only once, or chaos would ensue. How do they do it? Key controls happen well before replication even starts.

April 25 is #NationalDNADay so I’m sharing my portrait of Rosalind Franklin (1920 – 1958), #chemist & x-ray #crystallographer whose x-ray diffraction images were instrumental to discovering double-helix structure of #DNA, made important contributions to #carbon & #virus research, was 1 of the great scientists of the 20th century.⁠
⁠
There’s a joke amongst scientists that goes, “What did Watson & Crick discover?”

One of the most profoundly beautiful poems I've ever read. It expresses sentiments I hold ever so dear--but sadly, can only express clumsily. Oh, to have a fraction of this poet's talent! #NatureVsNurture #NationalDNADay #adoption #adopteevoices https://nurtureliterary.com/post/691359549388668929/would-you-rather

It's National DNA Day!

I'm #adopted , so until I had my #DNA tested by 23andMe, AncestryDNA, & FTDNA, I had no idea who or what I was. My adopters told me I was French. Turns out, I'm #Basque , #Finnish , #Norwegian , a little #Irish , a little #English .

Do you know your ethnicity? I find the subject fascinating--prolly bc I was always denied my most fundamental truths re: ancestry & heritage. If you'd like to share, I'd love to hear your story. #NationalDNADay #adoption #AdopteeVoices
