From the structure of DNA to epigenetic modifications, structural biology has contributed much to genetics. The benefits can also flow the other way — structural determination is benefiting from ...

Here’s the first 3D glimpse of how DNA is packaged up in a single cell The balled structure reveals organization, which is critical for gene activity.

Researchers have shown that translation of the genetic information stored in our DNA is much more complex than previously thought. This discovery was made by developing a type of advanced ...

DNA amplification-restricted transcription-translation (DARTT), is based on DNA amplification by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and uses PCR to truncate protein-encoding DNA while adding ...
