Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have developed a suite of algorithms to automate the counting of sister ...

The current study shows that cells with additional chromosomes have an altered mitochondrial structure and function. The reason: mitochondrial precursor proteins are sequestered in p62-positive ...

DigC Is Designed to Analyze CNV in a Single Cell The analysis of copy numbers of genetic sequences is of fundamental importance in biology and medicine, and Digital Counting (DigC) is a new method to ...

Chromosomes are thread-like structures located inside the nucleus of animal and plant cells. Each chromosome is made of protein and a single molecule of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Passed from ...

It has been known for several years that abnormal chromosome numbers lead to protein imbalances in the affected cells. Researchers at RPTU have now investigated the detailed effects of such imbalances ...

KIT researchers succeeded for the first time in reducing the number of chromosomes in a plant using the CRISPR/Cas method – surprisingly without affecting its growth The CRISPR/Cas molecular scissors ...
