In our bodies, there are trillions of cells. DNA is the foundation of organisms, but what does it stand for? Get to know more about this nucleic acid.

and chromosome organization. Understanding these dynamics could reveal new insights into genome regulation and how cells ...

Cytosine is one of the four main nitrogenous bases found in DNA and RNA, along with adenine (A), guanine (G), and thymine (T) or uracil (U). It is a pyrimidine derivative, meaning it has a single-ring ...

The latest imaging method from the Broad Institute uncovers structural disruptions in the nucleus associated with progeria at super-resolution.

At the University of Tokyo, Prof. Osamu Nureki’s group works on identifying the structure and function of the proteins involved in genome editing.

A new study led by researchers at the University of Cambridge, in collaboration with international institutions, has uncovered a key mechanism in how DNA behaves as it passes through nanoscale pores—a ...

Each cell of the human body contains two meters of DNA. The whole secret lies in the intricate three-dimensional arrangement that allows DNA strands to be efficiently organized and compacted ...

The researchers were focusing on i-motif DNA, which has an interlocking structure resembling a knot, and was only confirmed to be found in living human cells in 2018.
