The research represents a major step forward in revealing how the three dimensional form of DNA shapes the way human biology functions. In a major step toward understanding how the physical form of ...

Artificial intelligence has just redrawn the map of our genome’s control room, revealing hundreds of thousands of tiny DNA ...

Before cells can divide by mitosis, they first need to replicate all of their chromosomes, so that each of the daughter cells can receive a full set of genetic material. Scientists have until now ...

A new study shows, for the first time, how the human genome folds and moves in 3D over time to control when genes turn on and ...

New work from UC Davis and the University of Utah shows how the 3D structure of DNA inside a germ cell commits it to develop into a sperm cell. The discovery could improve understanding of fertility ...

Researchers identify a shared RNA-protein interaction that could lead to broad-spectrum antiviral treatments for ...

One of the most detailed 3D maps of how the human chromosomes are organized and folded within a cell's nucleus is published ...

After 10 years, members of the 4D Nucleome consortium have successfully completed the first phase of a project that aims to map the 3D organization of the human genome and how it changes over time, ...

Gene regulation and chromatin dynamics constitute central themes in modern molecular biology, governing how the genetic blueprint is accessed and utilised during development, differentiation and ...

Before cells can divide, they first need to replicate all of their chromosomes, so that each of the daughter cells can receive a full set of genetic material. Until now, scientists had believed that ...
