Scientists at EMBL have captured how human chromosomes fold into their signature rod shape during cell division, using a ...

The research is part of a larger effort to map the complete genomes of 22 crops in the nightshade genus, which includes tomatoes, potatoes, and eggplants. Using computational analysis, the researchers ...

The mucosal tissues of the gastrointestinal tract are the main portal entry of pathogens such as rotavirus (RV), which is a leading cause of death due to diarrhea among young children across the globe ...

Bovine rotavirus (BRV) is a significant pathogen that causes diarrhea in calves, profoundly impacting the cattle industry and resulting in substantial economic losses. Currently, the established ...

The manuscript by Hall et al reports a genome-wide map of supercoiling in yeast using psoralen as a probe that intercalates more effectively into underwound DNA and can then be fixed in place by ...

The map of yerba mate's genome might pave the way for new varieties of yerba mate. Yerba mate, along with tea and coffee, is one of the world's most popular caffeinated beverages. Widely consumed in ...

This study clearly shows that m6A modification on mRNA regulates immune responses in the intestine during rotavirus infection. The authors further show the mechanisms how m6A modification is regulated ...

A study links the loss of DNA methylation across the genome—as is common in cancer—to the disruption of the 3-D compartments that organize the genome and to the timing of DNA replication.
