In a leap forward for genetic and biomedical research, two scientists at the University of Missouri have developed a powerful ...

If DNA bridges persist between chromosomes during cell division, chromosomes are abnormally segregated, leading to genetic ...

In a major leap forward for genetic and biomedical research, scientists have developed a powerful new artificial intelligence tool that can predict the 3D shape of chromosomes inside individual cells ...

Scientists report that they have learned how certain combinations of rearranged genes can promote the progression of a rare ...

Researchers have revealed the fundamental mechanisms underlying homologous recombination – one of the main DNA repair pathways in human cells.

Scientists report that they have learned how certain combinations of rearranged genes can promote the progression of a rare ...

Rather than being like battery chargers, mitochondria are more like the motherboard of the cell.

Now, a stage in this process has been achieved in yeast cells ... DNA sequences designed to cause deletion of the flanked genes on a given signal. This flanking allows the size of the chromosome ...

My search for answers to these stupendously ambitious questions led me, it now seems inexorably, to mitochondria. This idea of mitochondria being little batteries with a built-in charger, about as ...

A study finds DNA damage and threats to cellular health with occupational exposure of farmers and farmworkers.

The researchers' findings, published in Science Advances, reveal that the stellate (Ste) gene—which has multiple copies located close to one another—on the X chromosome ... sperm cells produced after ...
