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

Inside cells, DNA twists and coils itself into a variety of different secondary structures—including i-motifs (iMs) and ...

AlphaFold didn't accelerate biology by running faster experiments. It changed the engineering assumptions behind protein structure prediction.

Proteins are among the most important molecular building blocks of life. They are chains of amino acids assembled in our cells by ribosomes, the molecular "protein factories" of our bodies. The ...
