For generations, a tiny piece of DNA has mastered the art of inheritance by hijacking the yeast cell’s division machinery, ...

For this, the cell must duplicate its DNA—its genome—and segregate it equally into two new daughter cells. To prepare the 46 chromosomes of a human cell for transport to the daughter cells during cell ...

Scientists at EMBL have captured how human chromosomes fold into their signature rod shape during cell division, using a ...

Comprehensive reference genomes have now been assembled for six ape species: siamang (a Southeast Asian gibbon), Sumatran ...

“Instead of floating freely and risking uneven distribution, the 2-micron plasmid has evolved a clever trick of hitchhiking,” ...

For this, the cell must duplicate its DNA – its genome – and segregate it equally into two new daughter cells. To prepare the 46 chromosomes of a human cell for transport to the daughter cells during ...

DNA analysis is crucial for identifying individuals and their relatives, using technologies like PCR, electrophoresis, and ...

By analyzing the flowerpot snake's unique genome, scientists are uncovering how the tiny reptile repairs its DNA and prevents harmful mutations. The findings provides valuable insights into genetic ...
