It has been claimed that because most of our DNA is active, it must be important, but now human-plant hybrid cells have been ...

The genetic heritage is not a simple, static list inside the cell nucleus. It unfolds into a dynamic architecture whose ...

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 ...

The Human Genome Project was completed a little over twenty years ago. Now, scientists involved in the 4D Nucleome Project ...

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 ...

Scientists have developed a novel approach of genome editing to repair muscle stem (satellite) cells, offering new hope for ...

After 10 years, members of the 4D Nucleome consortium have successfully completed the first phase of a project that aims to map the 3D organization of the human genome and how it changes over time, ...

The completion of a South American lung fish genome sequencing represents one of the most remarkable moments within current ...

Researchers at University of Tsukuba have decoded the nuclear genome of Amorphochlora amoebiformis, a unicellular marine alga ...
