What scientists long believed were knots in DNA may actually be persistent twists formed during nanopore analysis, revealing ...

A research group has developed a novel and highly accessible technology for producing uniform biomolecular condensates using ...

Neuroscientists have uncovered a new mechanism for memory formation, and it involves changes in the structure of your DNA. If you were asked to picture a molecule of DNA, chances are you would ...

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 ...

Research from scientists at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Northwestern University, and elsewhere indicates that forming long-term memories requires DNA damage and brain inflammation. The ...

Alcohol consumption leads to the formation of a toxic compound called acetaldehyde, which damages DNA. A research team from IOCB Prague has now described in detail how cells repair this damaged ...

Charles Darwin described evolution as "descent with modification." Genetic information in the form of DNA sequences is copied and passed down from one generation to the next. But this process must ...
