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

This image depicts the chemical structure of cytosine. It shows a hexagonal ring with nitrogen atoms at positions 1 and 3, and a primary amine group attached to carbon 4. The two remaining positions ...

New 3D genome maps reveal how DNA folding controls gene activity, offering fresh clues into disease and cell function.

Researchers created the most detailed maps yet of the genome’s three-dimensional organization using human stem cells and ...

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

If stretched out, human DNA would be about 2 meters long. For this long strand to fit inside the cell nucleus, which is about ...

As tough as medieval chainmail armor and as soft as a contact lens. This material is not taken from science fiction, it is a ...

DNA–protein cross-links (DPCs) represent a severe form of DNA damage that can disrupt essential chromatin-based processes.

Scientists depicted the four-dimensional genome model to reveal how DNA folding regulates genes. The discovery helps ...
