Scientists from Skoltech and the University of Potsdam have developed a physical theory that sheds light on how molecular ...
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 ...
Cyanobacteria—ancient microbes that oxygenated Earth and made complex life possible—are still revealing surprises billions of ...
A study published in the journal Cell marks the first reported instance of generative AI designing synthetic molecules that can successfully control gene expression in healthy mammalian cells.
A newly proposed model suggests cancer cells may resist treatment not just through genetic mutations, but by dynamically ...
A simulated cell in the early stages of division. Left half shows cytoplasm (blue cubes), mRNA degradation machinery molecules (pink), and sugar transporters (brown). Right half adds the membrane ...
Scientists have elucidated the molecular mechanism by which LEM-3 cuts DNA bridges during cytokinesis. If DNA bridges persist between chromosomes during cell division, chromosomes are abnormally ...
