If you stretched the DNA found in one of your cells from end-to-end, it would extend approximately 2 meters or 6.5 feet. Every single cell in your body can pack away this much DNA by winding it around ...
Scientists are hopeful it will improve understanding of how genes work, what goes wrong in disease, and how to fix it.
Cellular traffic jams inside a fruit fly embryo might sound like a minor detail, but new work suggests they help flip a ...
A computational model of the more than 26 million atoms in a DNA-packed viral capsid expands our understanding of virus structure and DNA dynamics, insights that could provide new research avenues and ...
The first atom-level model of a DNA-packed viral capsid reveals genome structure and possible new drug targets, University of Illinois researchers report. Pictured, from left: physics professor ...
