Researchers use AI to discover 14 distinct nucleosome states, revealing that DNA packaging acts as a "volume dial" for gene ...

Scientists using an AI-powered method have identified 14 distinct structural states of nucleosomes, challenging the ...

Cars patched up after a wreck may look fixed—but never run quite as before. The same may hold true for chromatin, according to a study published in Science on November 6. In response to double-strand ...

Every cell in the human body squeezes over six feet of DNA into a miniscule speck invisible to the naked eye—like ...

Recent advances in genomics, genome editing, and imaging technologies have revealed that neural activity can rapidly alter chromatin accessibility, ...

A research team led by Dr. Xiang David Li, Associate Professor from the Department of Chemistry, in collaboration with Dr. Karen Wing Yee Yuen from the School of Biological Sciences and Dr. Jason Wing ...

In biology textbooks and beyond, the human genome and DNA therein typically are taught in only one dimension. While it can be helpful for learners to begin with the linear presentation of how ...

DNA is the blueprint of life. Genes encode proteins and serve as the body’s basic components. However, building a functioning organism also requires precise instructions about when, where, and how ...

Originally isolated from soil microbes, “anthracyclines rapidly made their way to the clinic and are still one of the most effective compounds we have today,” explained Dr. Matthew Wooten, a ...
