DNA transcription is a tightly choreographed event: How RNA polymerase II regulates the dance

Life's instructions are written in DNA, but it is the enzyme RNA polymerase II (Pol II) that reads the script, transcribing ...

DNA shape and rigidity regulate key players of gene expression

Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have shown that DNA inflexibility, or rigidity, inside the nucleosome regulates the positioning of INO80. This highlights that the ...

Scientists Created A Genetic Code Search Engine Like 'Google For DNA'

The DNA inside of living organisms is packed with information, so much so that it's hard to search genetic databases, but ...
