An unusual DNA structure may hold the key to treating one of the deadliest cancers affecting women, which claims more than ...

Investigating chromatin's 3D architecture reveals its influence on gene regulation, shedding light on mechanisms underlying ...

While it can be helpful for learners to begin with the linear presentation of how stretches of DNA form genes, this ...

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 ...

MSK researchers shed new light on G-quadruplexes, a type of secondary DNA structure that has attracted attention as a potential therapeutic target in cancer.

New work from UC Davis and the University of Utah shows how the 3D structure of DNA inside a germ cell commits it to develop into a sperm cell. The discovery could improve understanding of fertility ...

Using an approach called DNA origami, scientists at Caltech have developed a technique that could lead to cheaper, reusable biomarker sensors for quickly detecting proteins in bodily fluids ...

The first crystal structure of an alternative DNA shape from the insulin gene has been revealed by a UCL-led research team.

The first crystal structure of an alternative DNA shape from the insulin gene has been revealed.

Move over, chatbots. This upgraded AI can model antibodies, DNA, and molecules from disease organisms. This next generation of AlphaFold, from Google Deepmind, is poised to significantly advance ...

Neuroscientists have uncovered a new mechanism for memory formation, and it involves changes in the structure of your DNA. If you were asked to picture a molecule of DNA, chances are you would ...
