A new study shows that cancer damages its own DNA by pushing key genes to work too hard. Researchers found that the most powerful genetic "on switches" in cancer cells, called super-enhancers, drive ...
Researchers explained to TPS-IL that the same genetic machinery that allows tumors to grow at extremely high speed may also ...
A genomic atlas of Nematostella vectensis reveals how primitive animals created multiple cell types millions of years ago, ...
A new LUMC study has changed our understanding of how cells work. Researchers have discovered that the CFAP20 protein acts as ...
The FDA has granted orphan drug designation (ODD) to LP-284, a next-generation acylfulvene small molecule, for the treatment ...
Scientists have recently been learning more about the importance of small bits of circular genetic material known as extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA). These little circles of DNA can hitch a ride with ...

Single-cell technique maps pre-malignant gene mutations in solid tissues
A new single-cell profiling technique has mapped pre-malignant gene mutations and their effects in solid tissues for the ...
In human cells, there are about 20,000 genes on a two-meter DNA strand—finely coiled up in a nucleus about 10 micrometers in diameter. By comparison, this corresponds to a 40-kilometer thread packed ...
A protein found in our cells has emerged as a secret weapon against biological aging, acting like a glue to repair damaged DNA and ward off neurological degeneration including that seen in motor ...
