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 ...

What scientists long believed were knots in DNA may actually be persistent twists formed during nanopore analysis, revealing ...

In diagrams and illustrations of cells, DNA is sometimes shown as a mass in the cell's nucleus, like a bowl of ramen noodles. For many years, it's been standard practice to take images of cells that ...

An international team has uncovered details about the formation of DNA's building blocks, paving the way for potential medical and therapeutic applications. Despite its fundamental role in biology, ...

A research group has developed a novel and highly accessible technology for producing uniform biomolecular condensates using ...

Scientists from Delft, Vienna, and Lausanne discovered that the protein machines that shape our DNA can switch direction. Until now, researchers believed that these so-called SMC motors that make ...

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 ...

New research predicts the location of DNA sequences that can form structures besides the canonical double helix — non-B DNA — in the recently released telomere-to-telomere genomes of the great apes, ...

The formation of DNA adducts due to flavouring substances, particularly those derived from botanicals, has emerged as a critical area of toxicological research. Many naturally occurring compounds ...

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 ...

Abstract:A research group led by Professor Hiroaki SUZUKI and Takeshi HAYAKAWA from the Faculty of Science and Engineering at Chuo University ...
