DNA repair proteins act like the body's editors, constantly finding and reversing damage to our genetic code. Researchers have long struggled to understand how cancer cells hijack one of these ...

A new study shows, for the first time, how the human genome folds and moves in 3D over time to control when genes turn on and ...

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

KHQ.COM - Orangutans may be more closely related to humans than scientists previously thought, a new genetic study has shown. The first blueprint of the orangutan genetic code has confirmed that they ...

Researchers have revealed that so-called “junk DNA” contains powerful switches that help control brain cells linked to ...
