Each cell with a nucleus contains chromosomes, which are made from DNA Human body cells each contain 23 pairs of chromosomes, half of which are from each parent. So, human gametes (eggs and sperm ...

We can use this technology to build a map of what’s going on in there and better understand when things are disorganized like ...

An article by UAB professor Joan-Ramon Daban analyzes in depth the physical problems associated with DNA packaging that have ...

A new article analyzes in depth the physical problems associated with DNA packaging that have often been neglected in structural models of chromosomes. The study demonstrates that the multilaminar ...

By turning droplets into tools for physically repositioning DNA, scientists can now explore gene expression with ...

In this series, ‘Genomics 101’, we go back to basics and explore some of the most important topics in genomics. In this blog, ...

DNA methylation, essential for regulating gene expression and cell function, is crucially maintained by CDCA7, which ...

Scientists used light-activated droplets to reposition DNA, offering new insights into gene expression and disease treatment.

Scientists revealed how gene regulation and chromatin control cells, improving disease treatments, including cancer and ...

At Princeton University, scientists have been nudging DNA by using light-inducible biomolecular condensates to generate capillary forces at targeted DNA loci. These condensates are part of a platform ...

Cancer cells appear to hijack a genetic pathway involved in DNA repair to drive malignancy and overcome treatment, a finding ...

Chromosomes containing thousands of genes are passed from parents to offspring and determine an individual's unique traits. Together, DNA, genes, and chromosomes make up each organism's genome.
