Researchers have found that the DNA spools inside human cells are far less tightly wound than textbooks have long suggested.

A cell protein previously believed only to provide a scaffolding for DNA has also been shown to directly influence DNA transcription into RNA—the first step of the process by which an organism's ...

Genome-wide maps of chromatin structure in a cell-based model of breast cancer reveal chromatin reorganization accompanied by changes in transcription and epigenetic marks.

Researchers at Kanazawa University have identified a previously unrecognized mechanism by which structural changes in the ...

Emerging gene editing platforms are revolutionizing precision medicine, enabling safe and effective genetic modifications for ...

Peptide-based signaling systems continue to occupy a central role in modern biochemical inquiry, particularly in areas concerned with extracellular matrix (ECM) dynamics and structural protein ...
