A new study led by researchers at the University of Cambridge, in collaboration with international institutions, has uncovered a key mechanism in how DNA behaves as it passes through nanoscale pores—a ...

Unexpected slowdowns or spikes in this signal were often interpreted as knots in DNA. But now, a new study published Aug. 12 ...

This indicates a preferred orientation in the process of D-loop formation and shows that the L2 loops have an inherent flexibility that enables them to behave differently along their interface ...

Could DNA be glycosylated? A new study published in Engineering explores this intriguing question, suggesting that DNA might undergo glycosylation, a process that could revolutionize our understanding ...

Recent studies show that senescent cells accumulate several species of cytosolic DNAs, including mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), cytoplasmic chromatin fragments (CCFs), and retrotransposable element cDNAs, ...

Discover how cohesin mechanics and nanotracker technology are transforming DNA research in this Bruker webinar.

As a result of this repulsion, the DNA loops then stack up to form rod-shaped chromosomes. Tracing chromosomal DNA in high resolution ...

Neuroscientists have uncovered a new mechanism for memory formation, and it involves changes in the structure of your DNA. If you were asked to picture a molecule of DNA, chances are you would ...

DNA breaking process revealed Researchers of the Physics Department of the University of Trento have revealed the link between the impact of radiation on DNA and the time in which the damaged ...

The team found that G-quadraplex DNA (G4-DNA) accumulates in neurons and dynamically controls the activation and repression of genes underlying long-term memory formation.

The formation of DNA adducts due to flavouring substances, particularly those derived from botanicals, has emerged as a critical area of toxicological research. Many naturally occurring compounds ...
