How does our DNA store the massive amount of information needed to build a human being? And what happens when it's stored incorrectly? Jesse Dixon, MD, Ph.D., has spent years studying the way this ...
The human genome has to be carefully organized so it will fit inside of the nuclei of cells, while also remaining accessible to the cellular machinery that works to express the right genes at the ...
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 ...
The complexity of living organisms is encoded within their genes, but where do these genes come from? Researchers resolved outstanding questions regarding the origin of small regulatory genes, and ...
Yuk-Lap (Kevin) Yip, PhD, is a professor and the interim director of the Center for Data Sciences at Sanford Burnham Prebys, and the senior and corresponding author of the manuscript. In biology ...
DNA is the blueprint of life. Genes encode proteins and serve as the body's basic components. However, building a functioning ...
The masses of sequencing information that now confront genomic scientists raise a huge question: Exactly what do the products of these genes do? About 30 genomes have been completely sequenced, and up ...
Researchers have investigated how cationic polymers organize on a molecular level when transporting RNA drugs. LMU researchers have investigated how cationic polymers organize on a molecular level ...
What if the brain's response to stress could be read not in fleeting neurotransmitter bursts, but in the quieting of genes deep inside chromatin? Researchers at the University of Alabama at Birmingham ...
