DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave. Researchers have now mapped this hidden architecture in unprecedented detail, showing ...

It’s tricky to make an exact copy of yourself. Or at least it is for cells undergoing mitosis, where cells replicate everything inside of them, including their neatly packaged DNA, then split in half.

Scientists analyzing the genomes of thousands of people across Japan discovered evidence for a previously overlooked third ancestral group, challenging the long-accepted “dual origins” theory. The ...

The discovery of old bones could finally reveal the real life story of d'Artagnan—who has long been cast in the shadow of Alexandre Dumas's swashbuckling fictional character. Beneath a church in ...

Every time a cell divides, it must copy its DNA with extraordinary precision. But this process is constantly challenged by DNA damage. Among the most dangerous lesions are DNA interstrand crosslinks ...

Researchers at the University of Oregon have developed an artificial intelligence tool that can read genetic code the way large language models like ChatGPT read text. Scanning the genome for ...

A machine learning model analyzing CpG-based DNA methylation accurately predicted the origin of many different cancer types in patients with cancers of unknown primary (CUP), according to research ...

The Shroud of Turin, claimed by some to have wrapped the body of Jesus after his crucifixion, got a publicity boost during Easter week with the release of new research that suggests that the relic may ...

Some of your most important life partners are the mitochondria that power all your cells. You and these little cellular powerhouses are in a 1.5-billion-year-old evolutionary relationship-but ...

The Shroud of Turin's origins remain debated despite extensive scientific study. DNA analysis revealed diverse human, animal, and plant contamination from many eras and regions. Exact origin and ...
