Human DNA constantly refolds in 3D space, and these looping dynamics regulate gene expression and cell identity.

Getting DNA into a living cell sounds simple, until you remember the cell’s outer membrane acts like a guarded wall. DNA ...

Over the years, cell biology has built a detailed picture of how cells compartmentalize their internal functions. Central to this organization is the nucleus, which houses the genetic material and is ...

A team led by Professor Shoichiro Asayama at Tokyo Metropolitan University has synthesized a charge-free molecule designed to ...

Scientists have identified how specific genetic changes function in cells to influence disease risk and other human health traits. By probing regions of DNA previously linked to disease, the work has ...

Inside every cell, thousands of molecular signals collide, overlap, and compensate, obscuring the true drivers of gene ...

Cells were long believed to safeguard nuclear contents, releasing them only during cell death. Extracellular DNA was thought ...

Rapidly testing hundreds of thousands of DNA sequences, scientists identified specific genetic variations contributing to blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar.

An estimated 170,000 Australians were diagnosed with cancer in 2025. Many people know the causes of cancer are partly genetic. But how do your genes, which contribute so much of what makes you you, ...

UCLA researchers have developed a lipid nanoparticle-based gene-editing approach capable of inserting an entire healthy gene ...

MIT engineers have challenged a core idea in biology by showing that epigenetic memory is not simply binary. Their research reveals cells don’t just lock genes in an “on” or “off” state. Instead, they ...
