Embryonic stem (ES) cells are pluripotent stem cells that can produce all cell types of an organism. ES cells proliferate rapidly and have been thought to experience high levels of intrinsic ...
Researchers have discovered how cells activate a last-resort DNA repair system when severe damage strikes. When genetic ...
One of the most detailed 3D maps of how the human chromosomes are organized and folded within a cell's nucleus is published ...
A team of researchers has generated one of the most detailed 3D maps of human chromosomes, cataloging over 140,000 DNA looping interactions.
A new study shows, for the first time, how the human genome folds and moves in 3D over time to control when genes turn on and ...

This giant microbe packs its DNA in a shocking pattern
Deep in coastal mangroves and even inside our own mouths, biologists are finding that DNA does not always sit in a simple loop at the cell’s center. A giant microbe called Thiovulum imperiosus has now ...
Alcohol consumption leads to the formation of a toxic compound called acetaldehyde, which damages DNA. A research team from IOCB Prague has now described in detail how cells repair this damaged ...
It has been claimed that because most of our DNA is active, it must be important, but now human-plant hybrid cells have been ...
Most of an animal cell’s DNA is stored in its nucleus, packaged into chromosomes that help maintain order. But cancer cells often carry another type of DNA: molecules separate from the rest of the ...
