An international research team has determined the first high-resolution structures of the herpes simplex virus origin-binding ...
MIT researchers discovered that the genome’s 3D structure doesn’t vanish during cell division as previously thought. Instead, ...
Long interspersed nuclear element-1 (LINE-1 or L1) is the only active, self-copying genetic element in the human genome—comprising about 17% of the genome. It is commonly called a "jumping gene" or ...
A major collaboration between UC San Diego and 23andMe identified genes that shape cannabis use behaviors. The study linked ...
Frogs have made significant contributions to Fred Hutch science over the years as a model organism that shares much of our ...
This may help explain how cells maintain identity while still adapting to new environments: memory nodes link genetic information to physical structure, allowing new genome ‘stories’ to be written ...
The rate of HIV infection continues to climb globally. Around 40 million people live with HIV-1, the most common HIV strain.
By restructuring a common chemotherapy drug, scientists increased its potency by 20,000 times. In a significant step forward ...
A better understanding of protein glycosylation offers insights into disease mechanisms and helps improve therapeutic medicines.
Long Interspersed Nuclear Element-1 (LINE-1 or L1) is the only active, self-copying genetic element in the human ...
In a promising advance for cancer treatment, Northwestern University scientists have re-engineered the molecular structure of ...
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.
