In a recent study published in Epigenetics, researchers investigated the epigenetic rewiring of odor perception in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)-infected cells. Study: ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Architecture is key when designing new materials – and DNA is probably the most programmable biomaterial for creating a wide range of rationally designed and functionally enhanced ...

The DNA molecule inside the nucleus of any human cell is more than six feet long. To fit into such a small space, it must fold into precise loops that also govern how genes are turned on or off. New ...

All the cells in an organism have the exact same genetic sequence. What differs across cell types is their epigenetics—meticulously placed chemical tags that influence which genes are expressed in ...
