Over the past two decades, researchers have learned that DNA inside the cell nucleus naturally folds into a network of ...
A new article analyzes in depth the physical problems associated with DNA packaging that have often been neglected in structural models of chromosomes. The study demonstrates that the multilaminar ...

Some people actually have more than one biological identity embedded in their bodies, a rare and often harmless biological ...
The first crystal structure of an alternative DNA shape from the insulin gene has been revealed. The first crystal structure of an alternative DNA shape from the insulin gene has been revealed by a ...
DNA's iconic double helix does more than "just" store genetic information. Under certain conditions it can temporarily fold ...
They were hardly modest, these two brash young scientists who in 1953 declared to patrons of the Eagle Pub in Cambridge, England, that they had "found the secret of life." But James Watson and Francis ...
The first crystal structure of an alternative DNA shape from the insulin gene has been revealed by a UCL-led research team. DNA is widely accepted to be formed of two strands that wind around one ...
Major depression is not only a crisis of mood, it is also a crisis of biology that reshapes the brain itself. As genetic ...
An article by UAB professor Joan-Ramon Daban analyzes in depth the physical problems associated with DNA packaging that have often been neglected in structural models of chromosomes. The study ...
