Model for ORF1p-RNP formation and DNA recognition. ORF1p forms homo trimers and higher-order oligomers that can bind to DNA but have a clear preference for RNA. Credit: Sarah Zernia et al Model for ...
Our DNA is constantly being packed and unpacked. And there is a good reason for this: depending on its packing state, it performs different functions in the cell nucleus. For most of its life – this ...

Cells that double their DNA through failed division survive far better than those from botched chromosome splits, a clue to how some cancers take hold
Cells that acquire a doubled genome after a failed division step survive and proliferate far more effectively than cells left ...
Among the many marvels of life is the cell's ability to divide and thus enable organisms to grow and renew themselves. For this, the cell must duplicate its DNA—its genome—and segregate it equally ...
Scientists have uncovered a surprising twist in how cells behave when division goes wrong. Sometimes a cell successfully copies its DNA but fails to split into two, leaving it with double the genetic ...
Researchers at The University of Hong Kong (HKU) have made an exciting discovery about how human cells protect DNA during cell division, offering new insights into combating diseases such as cancer.
If DNA bridges remain between chromosomes after cell division, chromosome segregation can be disrupted, leading to genetic instability and increasing the risk of cancer. Researchers at UNIST and the ...
Keeping you up to date with the chemistry news that matters most. Published by the American Chemical Society.
Many cellular functions in the human body are controlled by biological droplets called Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation (LLPS) droplets. These droplets, made of soft biological materials, exist inside ...
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 constantly folded and packaged. When it is time for cell division, and the ...
