This study has shown that HSV-1 is an "opportunistic interior designer" of human cells. | Genetics And Genomics ...

Not all DNA looks like the familiar twisted ladder. Sometimes, parts of our genetic code fold into unusual shapes. One such structure, the G-quadruplex (G4), looks like a knot. These knots can ...

A University of Alberta research team has identified a DNA structure that activates the immune system in cancer cells that ...

DNA nanorobots can alter artificial cells Date: January 13, 2025 Source: Universitaet Stuttgart Summary: Scientists have succeeded in controlling the structure and function of biological membranes ...

While prokaryotic cells do not have membrane-bound structures, they do have distinct cellular regions (Figure 1). In prokaryotic cells, DNA bundles together in a region called the nucleoid. Primitive ...

This structure, announced in their famous paper in the April 1953 issue of Nature, explained how the DNA molecule could replicate itself during cell division, enabling organisms to reproduce ...

New imaging tools reveal how within an hour of infection, the virus begins to alter our chromosomes to kick-start its own replication.

Two new landmark studies show how a seeming tangle of DNA is actually organized into a structure that coordinates thousands of genes to form a sperm cell. The work, published March 3 as two papers in ...
