Researchers have discovered how cells activate a last-resort DNA repair system when severe damage strikes. When genetic ...

Study uncovers key insights about how a new class of antiviral drugs works. Cryo-EM images showed the drugs bound to herpes simplex virus (HSV) protein at nearly atomic detail, while optical tweezers ...

A new study shows, for the first time, how the human genome folds and moves in 3D over time to control when genes turn on and ...

Harvard Medical School researchers have uncovered crucial insights into how an emerging class of antiviral drugs works.

For decades, biology textbooks taught that DNA’s story could be told with a single image: two elegant strands twisting in a ...

Scientists depicted the four-dimensional genome model to reveal how DNA folding regulates genes. The discovery helps ...

Alcohol consumption leads to the formation of a toxic compound called acetaldehyde, which damages DNA. A research team from IOCB Prague has now described in detail how cells repair this damaged ...

Researchers created the most detailed maps yet of the genome’s three-dimensional organization using human stem cells and ...

Discover how a tiny RNA molecule serves as a molecular switch in viral infections, providing insights into phage biology.

As antibiotic-resistant infections rise and are projected to cause up to 10 million deaths per year by 2050, scientists are looking to bacteriophages, viruses that infect bacteria, as an alternative.
