The genetic heritage is not a simple, static list inside the cell nucleus. It unfolds into a dynamic architecture whose ...

For decades, geneticists have known that most common illnesses are not caused by a single rogue gene but by intricate ...

Sometimes, a small error in the sequence of DNA can lead to a very serious disease. Scientists have identified many mutations ...

New 3D genome maps reveal how DNA folding controls gene activity, offering fresh clues into disease and cell function.

Today’s biomedical researchers are relentlessly searching for genes that drive disease, with the goal of creating therapies that target those genes to restore health. When a single gene is the culprit ...

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

The bacteria Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) is a haunting presence in many hospitals in the United States, where more than one in 100 patients are treated for A. baumannii infections. This ...

“Expression tells us what cells do, but regulatory DNA tells us where they come from, how they develop, and which germ layer ...

Researchers from Nazarbayev University's National Laboratory created the first large-scale, high-quality genotyping dataset ...

A new genome-wide mapping method finally shows how thousands of genes connect to drive disease. Biomedical researchers are working intensively to identify the genes that contribute to disease, with ...
