Defects in this process can lead to cell death or diseases like cancer. A new study has shown how chromosomes change shape during cell division. Certain protein complexes help fold DNA into ...

To prepare the 46 chromosomes of a human cell for transport to the daughter cells during cell division, each chromosome forms a compact X-shaped structure with two rod-like copies. How the cell ...

The planned changes include reinstating a version of chromosome testing that was discontinued in the 1990s, requiring athletes who compete in the female category to submit to a cheek swab or dry ...

These tests will screen athletes for genes containing the Y chromosome. Similar tests have been done in the past for Olympic sports. From 1958 to 1992, the Olympics used the Barr Body test ...

World Athletics to Require Chromosome Testing of Athletes in Women's Track and Field NANJING, China (AP) — World Athletics president Sebastian Coe said Tuesday that the track and field’s ...

Chromosomes are the carrier of our genomic information and hold vital clues of the evaluation and therapeutic outcome of breast cancer. “In an innovative approach, our study explores how VPA ...

"While we and many others have contributed to the general understanding of how the genome is folded inside chromosomes during mitosis—how cells dynamically acquire their intricate folding ...

The DNA is packed inside chromosomes. For example, chromosome no. 3 contains 6.5% of the total DNA in each cell. The chromosome 3 from the father contains DNA that is largely similar to that ...
