In a major leap forward for genetic and biomedical research, scientists have developed a powerful new artificial intelligence tool that can predict the 3D shape of chromosomes inside individual cells ...

New findings shed light on how chromosomes manage the various pushing and pulling forces generated when cells divide. Specifically, researchers show that chromosomes resist being punctured by the ...

Cancer cells with extra chromosomes depend on those chromosomes for tumor growth, a new Yale study reveals, and eliminating them prevents the cells from forming tumors. The findings, said the ...

An international research team has assembled the genome and 3D chromosomal structures of a 52,000-year-old woolly mammoth -- the first time such a feat has been achieved for any ancient DNA sample.

Patricia Opresko receives funding from the National Institutes of Health and has received funding from the Glenn Foundation for Medical Research. Damage to the ends of your chromosomes can create ...

“We’ve known that tiny fragments of ancient DNA can survive for long periods of time,” said Dr. Marcela Sandoval-Velasco of the Center for Evolutionary Hologenomics at the University of Copenhagen and ...

Hermit crabs have the most chromosomes of any animal, with 254. Chromosomes carry genetic information in the form of DNA. Genes located on autosomes determine the inheritance of physical traits. Sex ...

A study of mice might explain why. By Gina Kolata It’s been known for more than half a century that many men lose their Y chromosomes as they age. But no one knew if it really mattered. The loss of Y ...
