Researchers at ETH Zurich combined two CRISPR-Cas methods to decipher how mutations in a cell’s genome affect its function.

Researchers have found that the way DNA is packaged in cells can directly impact how fast DNA itself is copied during cell division. They discovered that DNA packaging sends signals through an unusual ...

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

Researchers from the Mattiroli group have found that the way DNA is packaged in cells can directly impact how fast DNA itself ...

In a recent paper published in the journal Genome Research, experts described the chromatin arrangement in the genomes of two ...

In recent years, scientists have created a range of new methods based on CRISPR-Cas technology for precisely editing the ...

Mitochondrial genome mutations may be linked to ALS, per a study, opening the door for new ways to diagnosing and treating ...

Metabolic enzymes, typically associated with energy production, are now discovered to also play essential roles in the nucleus, such as orchestrating cell division and DNA repair. This breakthrough, ...

New research finds that turtle genomes show a chromatin arrangement that hasn't been observed in other organisms.

"Our finding fundamentally alters our understanding of how cells are organised," explains Dr. Pardo Lorente. "The nucleus isn't just a passive storage space for DNA; it has its own metabolic needs and ...

In their long strings of nucleotides, DNA molecules hold massive troves of genetic data providing instructions for how living organisms ...
