For decades, biology textbooks taught that DNA’s story could be told with a single image: two elegant strands twisting in a ...

What scientists long believed were knots in DNA may actually be persistent twists formed during nanopore analysis, revealing ...

DNA replication is a fundamental process essential for bacterial growth and survival. Initiation begins at the chromosomal origin (oriC), where the conserved initiator protein DnaA assembles into an ...

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 ...

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

Researchers have discovered how cells activate a last-resort DNA repair system when severe damage strikes. When genetic ...

A team of researchers has generated one of the most detailed 3D maps of human chromosomes, cataloging over 140,000 DNA looping interactions.

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

As antibiotic-resistant infections rise and are projected to cause up to 10 million deaths per year by 2050, scientists are looking to bacteriophages, viruses that infect bacteria, as an alternative.

Scientists used decades old air filters to read DNA in dust, revealing a long decline in biodiversity across northern Sweden.
