A time-delay circuit enables precise control over the division of synthetic DNA droplets, which mimic biological Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation (LLPS) droplets found in cells. By utilizing a ...

DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave.

Researchers at The University of Hong Kong (HKU) have made an exciting discovery about how human cells protect DNA during cell division, offering new insights into combating diseases such as cancer.

Cell division is an essential process for all life on Earth, yet the exact mechanisms by which cells divide during early embryonic development have remained elusive—particularly for egg-laying species ...

A major advance in cell biology has revealed how our cells safeguard their genetic material during one of the most vulnerable moments in their life cycle. The study identifies a specific protein ...

Scientists have uncovered a new way embryonic cells divide when conventional mechanisms fail. Cell division underpins all ...

New study shows that cancer damages its own DNA by pushing key genes to work too hard. Researchers found that the most ...

Non-coding DNA is essential for both humans and trypanosomes, despite the large evolutionary divergence between these two species.
