Scientists reveal a hidden second layer of human DNA, showing how genome folding controls genes and influences disease development.

Scientists have uncovered a surprising secret about our DNA: it’s not a static blueprint, but a constantly shifting, folding structure that helps control how genes turn on and off. Researchers at the ...

An article by UAB professor Joan-Ramon Daban analyzes in depth the physical problems associated with DNA packaging that have often been neglected in structural models of chromosomes. The study ...

On February 28, 1953, two scientists, James Watson and Francis Crick, announced they had figured out the structure of DNA. DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the hereditary material in humans and almost ...

The first crystal structure of an alternative DNA shape from the insulin gene has been revealed by a UCL-led research team. DNA is widely accepted to be formed of two strands that wind around one ...
