Over the past two decades, researchers have learned that DNA inside the cell nucleus naturally folds into a network of ...

Researchers at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev (BGU) have discovered that a gene long known for shaping the skin's ...

DNA's iconic double helix does more than "just" store genetic information. Under certain conditions it can temporarily fold into unusual shapes. Researchers at Umeå University, Sweden, have now shown ...

A French research team led by CNRS scientists has discovered that cells are able to retain a memory of a previous perturbation within the 3D structure of their genome, independently of their DNA ...

Scientists at IOCB Prague are uncovering new details of gene transcription. They have identified a previously unknown molecular mechanism by which the transcription of genetic information from ...

BACKGROUND: Oscillatory shear stress (OSS), resulting from disturbed blood flow, is implicated in atherosclerotic plaque formation by incompletely understood mechanisms. This study aims to elucidate ...

Opportunistic infections can contribute to antimicrobial resistance making these infections more severe than would occur otherwise. Some uninvolved pathogens that cause these infections possess ...
