Researchers have discovered how cells activate a last-resort DNA repair system when severe damage strikes. When genetic ...

Researchers shed new light on G-quadruplexes, a type of secondary DNA structure that has attracted attention as a potential therapeutic target in cancer. Every day, billions of cells in your body ...

One of the most detailed 3D maps of how the human chromosomes are organized and folded within a cell's nucleus is published ...

Inside the human airway, a certain cell type reigns supreme: multiciliated cells, decorated with dozens of hair-like cilia all beating in tandem. These cells are responsible for clearing out foreign ...

Using drugs that inhibit enzymes called CDK4/6 and CDK2 extends the G1 phase of the cell cycle and helps to slow the growth of drug-resistant breast cancer.
