Every cell in the human body squeezes over six feet of DNA into a miniscule speck invisible to the naked eye—like compressing ...

Researchers use AI to discover 14 distinct nucleosome states, revealing that DNA packaging acts as a "volume dial" for gene ...

In human cells, there are about 20,000 genes on a two-meter DNA strand—finely coiled up in a nucleus about 10 micrometers in diameter. By comparison, this corresponds to a 40-kilometer thread packed ...

Scientists from Skoltech and the University of Potsdam have developed a physical theory that sheds light on how molecular ...

A remarkably small bacterium containing fewer than 500 genes serves as the basis for one of the most detailed digital life reconstructions ever created. Using computer technology, scientists have ...

An AI model developed by Google's DeepMind could transform our understanding of DNA - the complete recipe for building and running the human body - and its impact on disease and medicine discovery, ...

A simulated cell in the early stages of division. Left half shows cytoplasm (blue cubes), mRNA degradation machinery molecules (pink), and sugar transporters (brown). Right half adds the membrane ...

OpenAI has released GPT-Rosalind, a large language model fine-tuned specifically for life sciences research, marking the ...

Cyanobacteria—ancient microbes that oxygenated Earth and made complex life possible—are still revealing surprises billions of ...

Some 254 million people live with a chronic hepatitis B (HBV) infection that is often asymptomatic for decades, only to ...
