Understanding how cells turn genes on and off is one of biology's most enduring mysteries. Now, a new technology developed by ...

MIT researchers discovered that the genome’s 3D structure doesn’t vanish during cell division as previously thought. Instead, ...

At times, aging doesn’t become evident in wrinkles or in gray hair, it occurs deep inside your body, in cells that have ceased to divide but are still alive. These “zombie cells,” or senescent cells ...

A better understanding of protein glycosylation offers insights into disease mechanisms and helps improve therapeutic medicines.

Current demand for plastics and chemical raw materials is met through large-scale production of ethylene from fossil fuels.

By restructuring a common chemotherapy drug, scientists increased its potency by 20,000 times. In a significant step forward for cancer therapy, researchers at Northwestern University have redesigned ...

Challenging a long-standing assumption regarding the adult brain, recent research has demonstrated that individuals can ...

An artificial intelligence model predicts how brain immune cells react to RNA and DNA nanoparticles, helping scientists design safer and more effective nucleic acid therapies faster.

They observe how the mobile DNA LINE-1 copies its sequence in human cells, revealing the precise mechanism of the ORF2p gene.

Researchers say findings help to bridge the structure of the genome to its function in managing how genes are turned on and off.
