Led by biomedical engineer Vadim Backman, the study reveals that DNA’s 3D physical structure holds a “geometric code” — a ...

The first crystal structure of an alternative DNA shape from the insulin gene has been revealed by a UCL-led research team. DNA is widely accepted to be formed of two strands that wind around one ...

This may help explain how cells maintain identity while still adapting to new environments: memory nodes link genetic information to physical structure, allowing new genome ‘stories’ to be written ...

A team of Chinese scientists has uncovered a hidden 3D structure in rice DNA that allows the crop to grow more grain while ...

Long interspersed nuclear element-1 (LINE-1 or L1) is the only active, self-copying genetic element in the human ...

Researchers at the University of North Carolina have created microscopic soft robots shaped like flowers that can change ...

MSK researchers are shedding new light on G-quadruplexes, a type of secondary DNA structure that can cause DNA replication to stall. The structures are a potential therapeutic target in cancer. Image ...

Long Interspersed Nuclear Element-1 (LINE-1 or L1) is the only active, self-copying genetic element in the human ...

Increasingly, quantum computers are predicted to be the next great leap in computational power -- but in reality they are more likely to be the next next great leap. Right now we have to tailor ...

Frogs have made significant contributions to Fred Hutch science over the years as a model organism that shares much of our ...
