One of the most detailed 3D maps of how the human chromosomes are organized and folded within a cell's nucleus is published ...

Dust measurements of the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS provide constraints on its nucleus size, indicating a minimum radius of 1 km for a natural comet, as reported by Avi Loeb.

New 3D genome maps reveal how DNA folding controls gene activity, offering fresh clues into disease and cell function.

Estrogen is known as an important hormone, and it can control many functions by regulating the activity of hundreds of genes.

If stretched out, human DNA would be about 2 meters long. For this long strand to fit inside the cell nucleus, which is about ...

Like many retirement communities, The Terraces serves as a tranquil refuge for a nucleus of older people who no longer can travel to faraway places or engage in bold adventures. But they can still be ...

What makes someone a "morning lark" or a "night owl?" Why does jet lag hit us so hard, and why do some people struggle each ...

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 ...

Although it also performs some functions in men, estrogen, the main female sex hormone, is involved in a myriad of processes, ...

A team of researchers has generated one of the most detailed 3D maps of human chromosomes, cataloging over 140,000 DNA looping interactions.

The research represents a major step forward in revealing how the three dimensional form of DNA shapes the way human biology functions. In a major step toward understanding how the physical form of ...

A new CRISPR approach can control genes without cutting DNA, opening a safer path for treating genetic diseases. A newly developed form of CRISPR at UNSW Sydney points to a safer way of treating ...
