An international team of scientists has unveiled the most comprehensive model yet that explains how cells control the flow of ...

In human cells, there are about 20,000 genes on a two-meter DNA strand—finely coiled up in a nucleus about 10 micrometers in diameter. By comparison, this corresponds to a 40-kilometer thread packed ...

A team led by the UAB Institut de Neurociències (INc-UAB) has for the first time identified the mechanism behind a potentially fatal type of epilepsy, a symptom of mitochondrial diseases. The ...

A newly discovered nuclear role for HSL reveals how imbalances in its location within fat cells may contribute to both ...

MIT researchers discovered that the genome’s 3D structure doesn’t vanish during cell division as previously thought. Instead, ...

Researchers say findings help to bridge the structure of the genome to its function in managing how genes are turned on and off.

A new study has revealed the mechanism of multimerization — the association of different molecules to form complex structures ...

Before cells can divide, they first need to replicate all of their chromosomes, so that each of the daughter cells can ...
