Cohesin plays a crucial role in both chromosome organization and DNA repair. Here the authors find that cohesin mediated genome architecture prevents interactions between damaged chromatin.

Three weeks after his 40th birthday, James became the second NBA player to post a triple-double at age 40 or older. Karl Malone was 40 years, 127 days old when he recorded a triple-double on Nov ...

LeBron James is proof that age is just a number after recording his third triple-double since turning 40 in the Los Angeles Lakers' 111-88 win over the Washington Wizards on Tuesday night.

and some gene variants affect an immune molecule known as interleukin-18, which plays a role in predisposition to autoimmune disorders. Some Neandertal DNA variants are implicated in increased ...

Helix has one of the largest mattress collections on the market with the Helix Sleep portfolio, ensuring they have the perfect mattress for every sleep type and price point. Sitting above the ...

While most known types of DNA damage are fixed by our cells' in-house DNA repair mechanisms, some forms of DNA damage evade repair and can persist for many years, new research shows. This means ...

A team at Nagoya University experimented with ways to uncurl a DNA molecule using pressure applied to liquid flowing in a channel, with the pressure flow providing shear force that uncurled the ...

Researchers have previously tried sticking down one end of a DNA molecule to stretch it out, but found that the thermal fluctuations could still cause movement and blurring. "Stretching DNA refers ...
