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 ...

Eukaryotic genome stability relies on the presence of telomeres, specialized protein–DNA complexes that compose the very ends of the linear chromosomes 1. Telomeres form protective caps at the ends of ...

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 ...

R-loops are structures that form when a strand of RNA (red) forms a stable structure with double-stranded DNA, causing one strand of the DNA to form a loop. R-loops are associated with gene ...

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 ...

With the AlphaFold 3 AI model, the company aims to transform the understanding of the biological world and drug discovery. Also read: Google’s next big AI-powered photo feature could be RealFill: Here ...
