New molecule can tangle up DNA for more than 2 weeks

This shows a model of the "threading tetra-intercalator " bound up in the double helix of a DNA sequence. Chemists at The University of Texas at Austin have created a molecule that's so good at tangling itself inside the double helix of a DNA sequence that it can stay there for up to 16 days before the DNA liberates itself, much longer than any other molecule reported.
