G4-DNA transiently accumulates in active neurons during learning. The formation of this quadraplex structure takes place over milliseconds or minutes, at the same rate of neuronal transcription in ...

A new study led by researchers at the University of Cambridge, in collaboration with international institutions, has ...

Neuroscientists have uncovered a new mechanism for memory formation, and it involves changes in the structure of your DNA. If you were asked to picture a molecule of DNA, chances are you would ...

Scientists find that complex nanopore signals often come from DNA twisting around itself, not knots, reshaping understanding ...

Discover how cohesin mechanics and nanotracker technology are transforming DNA research in this Bruker webinar.

By doing so, they can pull DNA into a loop from both sides over time. We found this to be true for all types of SMC motors, of which there are many", Delft professor Cees Dekker, who supervised ...

Knot formation is important to DNA, which is a long string-like molecule. Certain anti-cancer drugs stop tumor cells from dividing by blocking the unknotting of DNA.

When the TLR9 inflammatory pathway was blocked in mouse hippocampal neurons, the mice were not able to form long-term memories, and there was a significant amount of DNA damage that was not repaired.

The formation of DNA adducts due to flavouring substances, particularly those derived from botanicals, has emerged as a critical area of toxicological research. Many naturally occurring compounds ...

STAG3-cohesin is a newly discovered mitotic cohesin complex that establishes the DNA architecture of stem cells that give rise to sperm.
