DNA inside the nucleus is not packed as a rigid regular fiber—linker histone H1 dynamically binds and loosely "glues" ...

The results are transforming how scholars understand human history. By analysing parchment, researchers are uncovering ...

Mitochondria don’t just generate energy—they also carefully organize their own DNA in a surprisingly elegant way. Scientists have discovered that a long-overlooked phenomenon called “mitochondrial ...

DNA methylation data can be used to estimate biological age, but results across commercial tests differ, raising questions ...

Tiny organisms on the ground – bacteria and fungi – have a “superpower” that allows them to reach up into the atmosphere and ...

A compact Cas12f nuclease shows high editing efficiency in human cells, with structural insights enabling an engineered variant potentially suited for future AAV‑compatible delivery.

Researchers say a new AI system can identify disease-causing mutations and explain their biological effects, potentially ...

A research team has discovered an enhanced CRISPR gene-editing system that could enable targeted delivery inside the human ...

Researchers at the University of Minnesota Medical School have developed a new method called PARTAGE that provides a clearer ...

Airborne genetic material can be used to paint a picture of ecosystem health, watch for invasive species and even identify ...

Over time, plastics break into smaller and smaller fragments called microplastics and — when they’re invisible to the naked eye — nanoplastics. The human body’s mechanisms ...

This review examines how next-generation protein sequencing and analysis technologies are expanding proteomics beyond the ...
