An international study led by the University of Basel has discovered that nuclear pore complexes—tiny gateways in the nuclear ...

Six feet of DNA crammed into a cell nucleus narrower than a human hair: ...

Inside human cells, biology has pulled off the ultimate packing job, figuring out how to fit six feet of DNA into a nucleus ...

For years, the nucleus within a cell was thought to be elastic like a rubber ball, deforming and snapping back into shape as the cell navigated through pores and between fibers inside the human body.

Cancer cells with a cell nucleus that is easily deformed are more sensitive to drugs that damage DNA. These are the findings ...

From middle school biology we were always taught that the nucleus is the “control center” of the cell, similar to how the brain is the control center of our own bodies. At first glance this makes a ...

Researchers have made a significant advancement toward understanding how the human genome is organized inside a single cell. This knowledge is crucial for analyzing how DNA structure influences gene ...

Scientists at Children's Medical Research Institute (CMRI) have made a major discovery about cancer cells. This new ...

New research has uncovered a process in the brain that could pave the way for future treatments of neurodevelopmental and ...
