A modular metamaterial mimics DNA geometry to combine twist compression, tunable stiffness, fast recovery, and reusable shock ...

Scientists are re-examining whether genetic changes remain the primary catalyst of human evolution, or if another factor has become more influential.

But a new study suggests that these parallels are a bit of an accident, and digits come by re-deploying a genetic network that controls a completely different process: the formation of the cloaca, a ...

Tiny tweaks in DNA folding can have big effects. A study from Umeå University shows that even the most subtle changes in ...

Before a cell divides, its DNA is replicated so that each daughter cell inherits the same genetic information. The two copies ...

A new study from Karolinska Institutet, published in Nature Communications, reveals that cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK) ...

In a twist worthy of molecular drama, scientists at Karolinska Institutet have uncovered a surprising new role for a ...

Previous researches on DNA included topics of bases, base-pairing, hydrogen bonds, structure, base sequence, dynamics, ...

A gene called DNMT3A is important for guiding blood stem cells into forming all the cell types present in blood, including ...

More than a decade ago, scientists harnessed a bacterial molecular machine that identifies and cuts specific sections of DNA, ...
