From spaghetti to sausagesOur DNA is constantly being packed and unpacked. And there is a good reason for this: depending on ...

New imaging tools reveal how within an hour of infection, the virus begins to alter our chromosomes to kick-start its own replication.

This is the job of chromatin, a complex of proteins that packages and condenses DNA within the cell nucleus. However, in this condensed form, the DNA is unreadable and therefore inactive.

Scientists from UCL and the University of Cambridge have revealed that "space ice"—long thought to be completely ...

If measured from beginning to end, the DNA in our cells is too long to fit into the cell's nucleus, explaining why it must be constantly folded and packaged. When it is time for cell division, and ...

*3) DNA Condensates Chromosomes within cells are highly condensed DNA, and DNA condensates are also being researched and applied in the field of DNA nanotechnology.
