There is also evidence that individual nucleotides can spontaneously assemble into chains to make RNA. This is a crucial step ...

Studies suggest the cell is more interconnected than previously thought, opening up "exciting possibilities for science and medicine." ...

A study described the three-dimensional architecture of turtle genomes, which fold in a configuration unlike any other animal observed so far.

Piercing the nucleus of a cell without destroying it seems like a technical feat. Yet, researchers have just found a non-invasive method that could revolutionize gene therapies. A series of ...

National Institutes of Health (NIH) scientists and collaborators say they have discovered a new way in which RAS genes, ...

The human genome consists of two meters (six and a half feet) of DNA, which is packed inside the cell in a nucleus barely 10 ...
