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 ...
What keeps our cells the right size? Scientists have long puzzled over this fundamental question, since cells that are too ...

Scientists identify a non-coding gene that directly controls how big cells grow
The study shows that a long non-coding RNA called CISTR-ACT acts as a master regulator of cell size, influencing how large or ...

AI finds 360,000 DNA knots that quietly control gene switches
Artificial intelligence has just redrawn the map of our genome’s control room, revealing hundreds of thousands of tiny DNA ...
The puzzle seems impossible: take a three-billion-letter code and predict what happens if you swap a single letter. The code we’re talking about—the human genome—stores most of its instructions in ...
To our immune system, a potentially lifesaving gene therapy can look a lot like a dangerous infection. That's because most genetic medicine uses viruses or double-stranded DNA to deliver genetic ...
Perhaps you’ve read in a biology textbook that humans have the same number of genes as C. elegans, a worm used in scientific research. Perhaps you’d also like to believe that humans are more complex ...
What keeps our cells the right size? Scientists have long puzzled over this fundamental question, since cells that are too large or too small are ...
After 10 years, members of the 4D Nucleome consortium have successfully completed the first phase of a project that aims to ...
