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 ...

A new study shows that cancer damages its own DNA by pushing key genes to work too hard. Researchers found that the most powerful genetic "on switches" in cancer cells, called super-enhancers, drive ...

During pregnancy, maternal and fetal cells migrate back and forth across the placenta, with fetal cells entering the mother's ...

Scientists have transformed enigmatic cell structures, called vaults, into storage units for messenger-RNA molecules made in ...

There are hundreds of cell types in the human body, each with a specific role spelled out in their DNA. In theory, all it ...

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 ...

In a new study published in Nature Communications titled, “The reference genome of the human diploid cell line RPE-1,” researchers from University of Rome La Sapienza have produced the first reference ...

A new single-cell profiling technique has mapped pre-malignant gene mutations and their effects in solid tissues for the ...

How does a cell know when it’s been damaged? A molecular alarm, set off by mutated RNA and colliding ribosomes, signals danger. When the sun shines on your skin, what does it hit? When it causes a ...

A team of researchers has conducted the largest and most comprehensive genome-wide association study (GWAS) to date of ...

FARGO, N.D.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aldevron, a global leader in the production of DNA, RNA and protein, has launched its latest innovation, Alchemy™ cell-free DNA technology. This revolutionary technology ...
