Abstract: DNA sequences can be analyzed by spectral techniques, looking for hidden periodicities. Anyway, mapping between nucleotide bases and numeric values has a strong impact on the DNA spectrum.

ABSTRACT: Background: Occupational exposures are known contributors to oxidative stress and epigenetic alterations, but their interrelationships in highly exposed, vulnerable populations remain poorly ...

Scientists have recently been learning more about the importance of small bits of circular genetic material known as extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA). These little circles of DNA can hitch a ride with ...

University of California San Diego researchers have discovered the enzyme responsible for chromothripsis, a process in which a single chromosome is shattered into pieces and rearranged in a scrambled ...

This Research Advance manuscript further elucidates the roles of SMC5/6 loader proteins and associated factors in the silencing of extrachromosomal circular DNA by the SMC5/6 complex. While the ...

With a new study in the journal Cell, researchers at Stanford University and Stockholm University have contributed to increased knowledge about gene regulation in human cells. How genes are turned on ...

Noah A. Dusseau is in the Department of Physiology, College of Natural Science, Michigan State University, East Lansing, Michigan 48824, USA. Read the paper: Genetic elements promote retention of ...

Background: Extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) plays critical roles in cancer, yet its landscape in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains unexplored. Methods: We used CIRCLE-seq and RNA-seq to ...

Schematic showing a single DNA duplex bridging two gold electrodes (yellow) patterned on a silicon nitride substrate (green). The setup allows measurement of electrical conductance as metal ions bind ...
