DNA isn’t just a long string of genetic code, but an intricate 3D structure folded inside each cell. That means the tools used to study DNA need to be just as sophisticated—able to read not only the ...

No one saw the blob takeover coming. In 2009 a team of biophysicists led by Anthony A. Hyman of the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics in Dresden, Germany, were studying ...

CLEVELAND—DNA isn’t just a long string of genetic code, but an intricate 3D structure folded inside each cell. That means the tools used to study DNA need to be just as sophisticated—able to read not ...

In many cancers, p53 is disabled or hijacked, so understanding how p53 works is vital for developing cancer therapies. But there's a problem: most of the DNA sequences that p53 targets are buried ...

DNA isn't just a long string of genetic code, but an intricate 3D structure folded inside each cell. That means the tools used to study DNA need to be just as sophisticated-able to read not only the ...

DNA repair proteins act like the body's editors, constantly finding and reversing damage to our genetic code. Researchers have long struggled to understand how cancer cells hijack one of these ...

The research also uncovered new patterns in how DNA changes over time, suggesting our cells encode age both randomly and in coordinated bursts—like ticking biological clocks. “It’s not just about ...

DNA is more than simply a lengthy string of genetic code; it is a complex three-dimensional structure folded inside each cell. That means that the equipment used to examine DNA must be as ...
