DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave.

You have your mother’s eyes and your father’s smile, but genetics is much more than just what’s on the surface. In a study that spans more than a decade, researchers at Baylor College of Medicine have ...

The MCM helicase is broadly bound across the genome, and its phosphorylation is antagonistically regulated by the kinase DDK and the phosphatase RIF1–PP1. TRESLIN–MTBP recognises the phosphorylated ...

Researchers shed new light on G-quadruplexes, a type of secondary DNA structure that has attracted attention as a potential therapeutic target in cancer. Every day, billions of cells in your body ...

When cells proliferate, genomic DNA is precisely duplicated once per cell cycle. Abnormalities in this DNA replication process can cause alterations in genomic DNA, promoting cellular ageing, cancer, ...

Johnson and Alistar competed as finalists in CU Boulder’s 2025 Lab Venture Challenge where their technology generated much interest from industry leaders. Access to DNA is crucial in many branches of ...

Live Science: Fulai Jin, associate professor of genetics, weighed in on future possibilities after researchers found how DNA’s topography could affect cancer mutations. Jin suggested researchers could ...

Ancient DNA is telling us more and more about humans and environments long past. Could it also help rescue the future? Eske Willerslev was on a tour of Montreal’s Redpath Museum, a Victorian-era ...
