An article by UAB professor Joan-Ramon Daban analyzes in depth the physical problems associated with DNA packaging that have often been neglected in structural models of chromosomes. The study, ...

This image compares three DNA sequencing technologies: Sanger sequencing, Massively Parallel DNA sequencing, and Nanopore DNA sequencing. Sanger sequencing (left) sequences 500-700 bases per reaction ...

Now writing for Family Tree Magazine and giving talks on DNA, Karen described herself as a historian rather than a scientist.

In most modern cells, DNA stores the genetic blueprint, and relies on proteins to replicate, repair and build from those ...

Researchers from the University of Birmingham have uncovered answers that provide the detail to explain two specific DNA repair processes that have long been in question. The publication of two papers ...

"Genes affected by these variations are linked to critical biological processes and may help explain individual differences in health and disease." The study also found distinct patterns in STR ...

Every human face is unique, allowing us to distinguish between individuals. We know little about how facial features are encoded in our DNA, but we may be able to learn more about how our faces ...
