Could it be that one of only three known markers directly targeting the DNA does not exist outside the realm of microbes? Now, researchers have demonstrated that this marker -- N4-methylcytosine (4mC) ...

The liverwort Marchantia polymorpha - a 'living fossil'.

and DNA recombination have in common? All were discovered first in plants. It sounds grandiose, but it’s true, and plant biologists delight in reminding others of these plant-derived breakthroughs.

Scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have developed the first-ever method of detecting ribonucleic acid, or RNA, ...

A new part of an ocean plant cell has been discovered that might revolutionize farming one day. The structure can take nitrogen and convert it into the ingredient that helps all organisms grow.

Plant cells are surrounded by an intricately structured protective coat called the cell wall. It’s built of cellulose microfibrils intertwined with polysaccharides like hemicellulose or pectin.

DNA replication is one of the most basic processes that occurs within a cell. Each time a cell divides, the two resulting daughter cells must contain exactly the same genetic information ...

2. Describe the components of plant cells and their functions. Most animal cells possess a nucleus, cell membrane, cytoplasm and mitochondria. The nucleus contains the genetic material (DNA ...

When combined with clinically validated growth factor serums, microchanneling can enhance skin rejuvenation, effectively ...

They published their approach and findings on March 28 in Science Advances. Inside every human cell, 2 meters of DNA must be tightly packed into a tiny nucleus. This DNA is wrapped around proteins ...
