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 ...

A graphic representation of a round, lumpy, blue protein and a single, comblike, purple strand of RNA interacting with a twisted, double, blue strand of DNA that separates where it meets the RNA. A ...

New work from UC Davis and the University of Utah shows how the 3D structure of DNA inside a germ cell commits it to develop into a sperm cell. The discovery could improve understanding of fertility ...

What scientists long believed were knots in DNA may actually be persistent twists formed during nanopore analysis, revealing an overlooked mechanism with major implications.
