Scientists have captured the highest-resolution images ever taken of DNA, revealing previously unseen twisting and squirming behaviors. Deoxyribonucleic acid, otherwise known as DNA, can be ...

Researchers at Kavli Institute of Delft University and EMBL Heidelberg have filmed a protein apparatus manipulating the shape of DNA. In the video, a condensin complex remains bound at the stem of a ...

Now, researchers have developed a “designer” DNA segment that can eradicate these cancer stem cells, with tests in mice showing promising early results in preventing the return of cancer.

Real image of DNA molecules being copied in human cells, visualized by immunofluorescence microscopy. The yellow arrows mark where replication begins, and the white arrows indicate the direction ...

Teachers & Parents: Does your kid have a science question? Have them send us a video with a weather question to [email protected]! Today’s experiment is special because it is inspired by ...

These images were then superimposed onto the blue and green DNA maps of the same DNA molecules. We expect this method to completely transform our understanding of how human chromosomes replicate.

The image shows a single thread of double-stranded DNA suspended on a bed of nanoscopic silicon pillars.

Biologists have identified the specific region in vertebrates where adult blood stem cells arise during embryonic development. The researchers say their time-lapse imaging of the process, by which ...

A previously unknown pattern in DNA methylation -- an event that affects cell function by altering gene expression -- has been uncovered for the first time by stem cell researchers, a finding that ...

Scientists at Los Alamos and international partners have created the first 3-D images of a special type of RNA molecule that is critical for stem cell programming and known as the "dark matter" of ...

Technology DNA has been modified to make it store data 350 times faster Researchers have managed to encode enormous amounts of information, including images, into DNA at a rate hundreds of times ...
