Researchers are investigating the role of non-coding DNA, or junk DNA, in regulating astrocytes, brain cells involved in ...

It has been claimed that because most of our DNA is active, it must be important, but now human-plant hybrid cells have been ...

Scientists mapped hidden DNA switches in brain support cells to understand how gene control may influence Alzheimer’s disease ...

Researchers have revealed that so-called “junk DNA” contains powerful switches that help control brain cells linked to Alzheimer’s disease. By experimentally testing nearly 1,000 DNA switches in human ...

The completion of a South American lung fish genome sequencing represents one of the most remarkable moments within current genetic research. Because .

Explore how aggressive breast cancer evades immune defences and discover potential treatment strategies with our latest ...

Researchers found that sunburn disables a natural skin defense, allowing inflammation to trigger dangerous changes in cells. Understanding this process could help stop skin cancer before it starts.

Scientists depicted the four-dimensional genome model to reveal how DNA folding regulates genes. The discovery helps ...

Researchers created the most detailed maps yet of the genome’s three-dimensional organization using human stem cells and ...
