Life begins with a quiet but precise choreography inside the nucleus. For decades, scientists believed that a newly ...

Scientists reveal a hidden second layer of human DNA, showing how genome folding controls genes and influences disease development.

CRISPR is a powerful DNA-editing tool that has underpinned huge advancements in human health care in the last decade. It is a ...

DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave. Researchers have now mapped this hidden architecture in unprecedented detail, showing ...

The left-handed spiral of each Z-DNA strand is highlighted on the left. Binding and bonding of the two zinc finger domains (shown in red) from the CTCF protein to Z-DNA (shown in blue). This protein ...

In a landmark simulation, scientists have recreated the full cell cycle of a living cell in four dimensions — three ...

When bacteria cells replicate, they do so a little differently than human cells do. They don't undergo mitosis, a splitting ...

For years, biomolecular condensates were thought to be simple, liquid-like droplets with little internal organization. New ...

DNA, long known as the molecule that carries genetic information, is taking on a new role in science. Researchers now see it ...

Researchers have revealed how bacteria precisely control the genes that trigger cell division. The study shows that the MraZ ...
