Artificial intelligence has just redrawn the map of our genome’s control room, revealing hundreds of thousands of tiny DNA ...

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 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 ...

New 3D genome maps reveal how DNA folding controls gene activity, offering fresh clues into disease and cell function.

Before cells can divide by mitosis, they first need to replicate all of their chromosomes, so that each of the daughter cells can receive a full set of genetic material. Scientists have until now ...

After 10 years, members of the 4D Nucleome consortium have successfully completed the first phase of a project that aims to ...

Research reveals that five DNA letters can switch chromatin between fluid and solid-like states, influencing gene ...

In a landmark effort to understand how the physical structure of our DNA influences human biology, Northwestern investigators and the 4D Nucleome Project have unveiled the most detailed maps to date ...

New work from UC Davis and the University of Utah shows how the 3D structure of DNA inside a germ cell commits it to develop into a sperm cell. The discovery could improve understanding of fertility ...

Gene regulation and chromatin dynamics constitute central themes in modern molecular biology, governing how the genetic blueprint is accessed and utilised during development, differentiation and ...
