Human cells have two copies of each chromosome, and this balance is essential for genes to be expressed in the appropriate ...

A metabolic enzyme studied for over seven decades has a hidden second function—it can unwind RNA and promote cell cycle progression, an additional function beyond its role in energy production, ...

Researchers have revealed how bacteria precisely control the genes that trigger cell division. The study shows that the MraZ ...

Epigenetic therapies are offering a more targeted way to treat some lymphomas by changing how genes are turned on or off ...

To model bacterial life, Thornburg and his colleagues turned to one of its simplest examples: a bacterial cell with a ...

By simulating the life cycle of a minimal bacterial cell—from DNA replication to protein translation to metabolism and cell ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising new way that giant embryonic cells divide—without relying on the classic “purse-string” ring long thought essential for splitting a cell in two. Studying ...

On the flipside, if telomeres are too long, it can also spell trouble because cancer cells require long telomeres to become ...

For years, biomolecular condensates were thought to be simple, liquid-like droplets with little internal organization. New ...

Biologists at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have uncovered how the protein NuSAP safeguards tiny structures inside cells called ...
