A study scanned genomes from over 450,000 people to find individuals who carry rare archaic versions of DNA changes once ...

Cancer isn't just about broken genes-it's about broken architecture. Imagine a city where roads suddenly vanish, cutting off neighborhoods from essential services.

Researchers at Duke University used CRISPR technologies to discover previously unannotated stretches of DNA in the 'dark genome' that are responsible ...

Researchers discovered that a long-misunderstood protein plays a key role in helping chromosomes latch onto the right “tracks” during cell division. Instead of acting like a motor, it works more like ...

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. The authors' approach to use genetic code expansion to tag two ALS proteins associated with stress granules has ...

Cancer involves more than just genetic mutations; it also involves structural failures. Consider a city where roads disappear ...

Inside every human cell, six feet of DNA folds into a nucleus that is only a few micrometers wide, yet still manages to ...

Cancer isn't just about broken genes—it's about broken architecture. Imagine a city where roads suddenly vanish, cutting off ...

EMBARGOED: A new study to be presented Dec. 6 at the 2025 American Society of Hematology (ASH) meeting reveals that even subtle disruptions in genome architecture can predispose individuals to ...

The microbe Pyrodictium abyssi is an archaeon—a member of what's known as the third domain of life—and an extremophile. It ...

An archaeon reads the same codon in two different ways, overturning a doctrine that has stood for 60 years. Living organisms ...

Scientists capture the most detailed 3D images of chromatin condensates, revealing how DNA packs tightly inside cells.
