Using X-ray diffraction data, James Watson (1928-2025) made the seminal discovery of the double-helical structure of DNA ...
As tough as medieval chainmail armor and as soft as a contact lens. This material is not taken from science fiction, it is a ...
One of the most detailed 3D maps of how the human chromosomes are organized and folded within a cell's nucleus is published ...
A team of researchers has generated one of the most detailed 3D maps of human chromosomes, cataloging over 140,000 DNA looping interactions.
High-resolution imaging has revealed the internal layout of chromatin condensates, showing how DNA fibers fold and interact within these droplet-like structures. The findings connect molecular ...
Inside cells, DNA twists and coils itself into a variety of different secondary structures—including i-motifs (iMs) and ...
Inside every human cell, six feet of DNA folds into a nucleus that is only a few micrometers wide, yet still manages to switch genes on and off with exquisite precision. The latest work on ...
A multi-institute team led by St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and UT Southwestern Medical Center investigators established for the first time how certain drugs used to treat epilepsy affect ...
