Researchers have discovered that DNA wrapped around nucleosomes exists in multiple partially open states rather than simply ...

DNA isn’t just for labs — you can explore it right at home or in the classroom with simple, hands-on experiments. From extracting strawberry DNA with dish soap to modeling the double helix with beads, ...

Many properties of molecules cannot be predicted from the properties of the atoms they consist of. These properties only ...

Cells use a surprising “pearling” motion to evenly distribute mitochondrial DNA. This newly uncovered process may be key to ...

When James Watson and Francis Crick described the double-helix structure of DNA in 1953, the moment appeared decisive and ...

All of them are the very best, like no one ever was.

Penn researchers have developed a smarter AI method for solving notoriously difficult inverse equations, which help ...

The development of an embryo is one of the most fundamental processes in biology. Early in this process, it is determined which cells will give rise to which tissues—controlled by epigenetic marks ...
