X chromosome reactivation contributes to reducing the signs of disease in the female brain. Female cells have two X ...

Researchers have uncovered a microscopic weapon that can literally tear viruses apart from the inside, a single protein that ...

To help reduce the misuse and misunderstanding of current science, scientific research needs to be explained in language the ...

Researchers at Moffitt Cancer Center have developed a new tool to predict how cancer cells evolve. By focusing on chromosome ...

Researchers at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) have identified a mechanism that protects the female brain from genetic diseases. Although one of the two X chromosomes is ...

In conjunction with University Medical Center Mainz, researchers at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) have identified a mechanism that protects the female brain from genetic ...

Scientists achieved a genetic breakthrough by removing an extra human chromosome using gene-editing technology. This landmark study successfully deleted the surplus chromosome 21 responsible for Down ...

UCSF scientists discover that the spindle, the structure that divides chromosomes equally during mitosis, actually gets stronger when it is stretched.

AlphaGenome is a leap forward in the ability to study the human blueprint. But the fine workings of our DNA are still largely ...

Chromosomes are masters of organization. These long strings of DNA fold down into an ensemble of compact structures that keep needed parts of the genome accessible while tucking away those that aren't ...

Four Northwestern scientists published a study in December as part of the 4D Nucleome Project, which maps the genome in 3D ...
