Learn how a newly discovered virus disrupts its host’s nucleus in ways that echo how complex cells may have formed billions ...

Cells experience many different types of stress, such as starvation or stress caused by too much salt or too high a temperature. Insulin signals respond to such stress signals by sending the protein ...

One of the most well-studied cellular responses is how they react during times of stress, such as when the temperature gets ...

Scientists at the Princeton University Branch of the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research have identified novel mechanisms by ...

Biologists have long treated the cell as a chemical factory, but a new wave of research is forcing a rethink of that familiar ...

Researchers have determined that condensates are electrically charged droplets that can induce voltage changes across the ...

The research represents a major step forward in revealing how the three dimensional form of DNA shapes the way human biology functions. In a major step toward understanding how the physical form of ...

Research reveals that five DNA letters can switch chromatin between fluid and solid-like states, influencing gene ...

Nonlinear dendritic integration in single presubicular neurons provides a mechanism for combining vestibular-based head-direction signals and visual landmark signals to anchor the brain’s internal ...

One of the most detailed 3D maps of how the human chromosomes are organized and folded within a cell's nucleus is published in Nature.

Cancer cells with a cell nucleus that is easily deformed are more sensitive to drugs that damage DNA. These are the findings of a new study by researchers at Linköping University in Sweden. The ...
