A novel, freely available AI tool has cut the time it takes to determine chromatin structure from days to minutes. The 3D structure of DNA is important for controlling cell-specific gene expression ...

From memory formation to disease prevention, scientists are uncovering how chromatin structure, enzyme evolution, and epigenetic regulators orchestrate gene activity. Recent breakthroughs reveal how ...

A team of researchers led by HHMI Investigator Michael Rosen has captured the most detailed images yet of the molecules in synthetic chromatin condensates — droplet-like structures of compacted DNA.

This study is led by Dr. Yue Zhou (State Key Laboratory of Gene Function and Modulation Research, School of Advanced Agricultural Sciences, Peking-Tsinghua Center for Life Sciences, Peking University, ...

Chromatin remodeling plays a vital role in gene regulation, affecting how DNA is accessed. Disruptions in this process can also lead to cancer and other diseases. To better understand how chromatin ...

In biology textbooks and beyond, the human genome and DNA therein typically are taught in only one dimension. While it can be helpful for learners to begin with the linear presentation of how ...

Cars patched up after a wreck may look fixed—but never run quite as before. The same may hold true for chromatin, according to a study published in Science on November 6. In response to double-strand ...

A robust and quantitative map links chromatin modification and gene expression of cells during zebrafish embryogenesis.
