Aug. 12, 2021 Researchers have identified a new way to measure DNA torsional stiffness -- how much resistance the helix offers when twisted -- information that can potentially shed light on how cells ...
May 26, 2021 Researchers have developed a plasmofluidic chip that can perform PCR in only about 8 minutes, which could speed diagnosis during current and future ...
Nov. 9, 2021 Type 1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, and cancer are just some of the disorders associated with specific genes not 'turning on' and 'turning off' as they should. By using new ...
Mar. 2, 2023 A team of researchers has made a discovery that may have implications for therapeutic gene editing strategies, cancer diagnostics and therapies and other advancements in ...
Jan. 27, 2022 Researchers show how a DNA-binding protein can search the entire genome for its target sequence without getting held up on the way. The result contradicts our current understanding of gene regulation ...
Sep. 2, 2022 Researchers have discovered that the motion of chromatin, the material that DNA is made of, can help facilitate effective repair of DNA damage in the human nucleus -- a finding that could lead to ...
Mar. 31, 2022 Skin cells and their DNA varies between individuals, but new data shows that some groups of people have higher variability in their cell deposits. The South Australian forensic science researchers ...
Aug. 2, 2021 A research team has analyzed the three-dimensional structure of a protein that suppresses the development of colorectal polyposis, MUTYH, at the atomic level and clarified the repair mechanism for ...
Apr. 1, 2022 How is the activity of genes regulated by the packaging of DNA? To answer this question, researchers developed a technique to measure both gene expression and DNA packaging at the same ...
Aug. 9, 2022 Researchers have identified critical spots on the genome where gene editing could cause an unwanted response, and they provide recommendations for safer ...
