The DNA in the cell nuclei of higher organisms is tightly coiled around protein complexes called nucleosomes, which repress gene expression. Researchers in Germany have now developed a model that ...

Scientists have created an unprecedented 3-dimensional structural model of a key molecular 'machine' known as the BAF complex, which modifies DNA architecture and is frequently mutated in cancer and ...

Rediscovered letters and postcards highlight the fierce competition among scientists who discovered DNA's famous double-helix structure and unraveled the genetic code. Francis Crick and James D.

In both physics and chemistry, the mesoscopic scale refers to the length scale on which the properties of a material or phenomenon can be studied, without entering into a discussion about the behavior ...

UC Davis researchers have confirmed a central idea about chromosome repair, more than a quarter century after it was first proposed. The finding is important to scientists who seek to understand DNA ...

An artificial intelligence model predicts how brain immune cells react to RNA and DNA nanoparticles, helping scientists design safer and more effective nucleic acid therapies faster.
