Every time a cell divides, it must copy its DNA with extraordinary precision. But this process is constantly challenged by ...

DNA isn’t just for labs — you can explore it right at home or in the classroom with simple, hands-on experiments. From extracting strawberry DNA with dish soap to modeling the double helix with beads, ...

Two studies led by the Chahrour Lab at UT Southwestern Medical Center shed new light on genes associated with autism spectrum ...

From the elegant spirals of the double helix to the bustling activity at replication forks, your DNA is constantly at work — and under threat. Scientists are uncovering how it copies itself with ...

Every cell in the human body squeezes over six feet of DNA into a miniscule speck invisible to the naked eye—like compressing ...

Researchers use AI to discover 14 distinct nucleosome states, revealing that DNA packaging acts as a "volume dial" for gene ...

For decades, scientists believed a fertilized egg’s DNA began as a shapeless mass, only organizing itself once the embryo switched on its genes. But new research reveals that the genome is already ...
