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

The genetic heritage is not a simple, static list inside the cell nucleus. It unfolds into a dynamic architecture whose ...

A new study shows, for the first time, how the human genome folds and moves in 3D over time to control when genes turn on and ...

The research represents a major step forward in revealing how the three dimensional form of DNA shapes the way human biology functions. In a major step toward understanding how the physical form of ...

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

Visualization of the genome (green) and a single gene (magenta) in a human cell nucleus, with genomic motions mapped by arrows and an example of a gene trajectory highlighted as a colored curve. A ...

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 ...

Researchers at Kumamoto University have uncovered a previously unknown molecular mechanism by which human T-cell leukemia ...

Scientists have made a landmark breakthrough that enables the creation of viable human egg cells from a skin cell, new research claims. The study, published in Nature Communications, detailed how US ...
