A new paper describes how scientists used the tool to identify an important role for TRIM24 in mediating telomere repair after cells divide.

Each time a cell divides, a small section of each chromosome's protective cap - the telomere - is worn away. Most cells use ...

If measured from beginning to end, the DNA in our cells is too long to fit into the cell's nucleus, explaining why it must be ...

This Review describes the mechanisms by which the X chromosome regulates immune responses. The authors discuss how the effects of this chromosome can account for many of the immunological ...

Chromosomes are coated in proteins and RNA called the mitotic chromosome periphery. Here, broadband microrheology analysis has shown that this coat has dynamic, liquid-like properties and provides ...

Our cells' identity is shaped by DNA tags called methylation. New tech, scDEEP-mC, maps these tags in single cells with ...
