Scientists found that DNA’s phosphate groups can direct chemical reactions to make the correct mirror-image form of drug ...

Some scientists trying to create "mirror life" have stopped in their tracks. A mirror microorganism could end up being a major pathogen since immune systems wouldn't notice it. Mirror-image biology ...

Amid growing debates about the benefits and risks of studying looking-glass versions of life’s building blocks, there is an urgent need to bridge divergent views. Prohibiting the creation of molecules ...

For the first time, researchers have successfully fabricated and characterized a fully functional mirror-image nanopore—a molecular gateway built entirely from D-amino acids, the mirror-image forms of ...
