Researchers have developed a way to 3D print custom micrometer-sized structures directly into the interior of living cells.
DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave.
A new artificial intelligence model developed by USC researchers and published in Nature Methods can predict how different proteins may bind to DNA with accuracy across different types of protein, a ...
Scientists have created a new technique that can assess how mutations in the genome influence the packaging of DNA in cells. The genome is massive, and has to be carefully wrapped around proteins so ...
Tiny tweaks in DNA folding can have big effects. A study from Umeå University shows that even the most subtle changes in DNA's shape have an important influence on gene activity and energy production.
Scientists have succeeded in controlling the structure and function of biological membranes with the help of 'DNA origami'. The system they developed may facilitate the transportation of large ...
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 ...
An artificial intelligence-predicted image of a region in the SPRTN enzyme (green structure) that can recognise and bind to ubiquitin chains (orange structure). Researchers at the University of Oxford ...
