In human cells, there are about 20,000 genes on a two-meter DNA strand—finely coiled up in a nucleus about 10 micrometers in diameter. By comparison, this corresponds to a 40-kilometer thread packed ...

In an era where the U.S. healthcare system spends $4.5T annually yet faces systemic failures, with life expectancy plummeting to a three-decade low and chronic disease rates at an all-time high, the ...

The artificial cell nucleus (right) constructed using the purified DNA was morphologically very similar to the natural cell nucleus derived from an egg (left). A team led by Professor Kazuo Yamagata ...

A powerful new discovery reveals that Nup98 a protein once thought to only ferry molecules through the nucleus plays a vital role in safeguarding the most vulnerable areas of DNA. By forming ...

DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave. Researchers have now mapped this hidden architecture in unprecedented detail, showing ...

The investigations of KIT researchers have shown that biomolecular condensates enable fast yet reliable activation of the right genes. “Biomolecular condensates are tiny drops that form in specific ...

Could an obscure company called Nucleus Genomics be the answer to 23andMe’s recent troubles? On Friday, Kian Sadeghi, founder of New York-based Nucleus, posted on the company’s Substack that Nucleus ...
