MIT researchers discovered that the genome’s 3D structure doesn’t vanish during cell division as previously thought. Instead, ...
In our bodies, there are trillions of cells. From white blood cells to skin cells, each type has its own specific function which helps us perform tasks and survive. But what makes up these cells and ...
Researchers say findings help to bridge the structure of the genome to its function in managing how genes are turned on and off.
Left: Imaging of lamin A/C structures in a physically expanded nucleus from an individual with progeria. Right: Same, but with 3D genomic reads overlaid in their original spatial locations, colored by ...
University of Wisconsin researchers Sushmita Roy and Erika Da-Inn Lee have developed a new computational tool that maps changes in the genome, ultimately helping researchers see DNA’s 3D organization ...
DNA Full Form: The full name of DNA is Deoxyribonucleic Acid. This molecule holds the complete genetic code of living organisms. The name “Deoxyribonucleic Acid” reflects its part: “Deoxy” points to ...
Researchers from the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) have published an analysis that reveals new functions of the ...
Tiny tweaks in DNA folding can have big effects. A study from Umeå University shows that even the most subtle changes in DNA's shape have an important influence on gene activity and energy production.
