Scientists find damaged DNA can jump between human cells in possible new cancer pathway
The discovery challenges the long-standing idea that early humans mainly evolved and survived in open grasslands, coasts, or other less demanding environments.
Scientists at Children's Medical Center Research Institute at UT Southwestern (CRI) have discovered that large pieces of DNA ...
Living systems such as cells rely on membrane pores and channels to transport molecules, exchange signals, and organize ...
Macrophages, the immune system’s front-line scavenger cells, do more than simply digest dead cells. A new study published in Nature Communications shows they actively extract nuclear DNA from dying ...
DNA isn't just a long string of genetic code, but an intricate 3D structure folded inside each cell. That means the tools used to study DNA need to be just as sophisticated-able to read not only the ...

Mayo Clinic scientists discovered tiny DNA molecules that hunt down 'zombie cells' inside aging bodies — and selectively destroy them
In 2011, a team at Mayo Clinic did something no one had managed before: they built a tiny DNA construct, threaded it into the ...
A cell nucleus reconstituted in vitro in Xenopus laevis (African clawed frog) egg extract. Left image shows a fluorescence image where DNA has been stained and right image shows a density map of the ...
Biologists have uncovered a new mode of communication inside cells that helps bacterial pathogens learn how to evade drugs. Their findings, published in the journal Nature Communications, describe how ...
