Piercing the nucleus of a cell without destroying it seems like a technical feat. Yet, researchers have just found a non-invasive method that could revolutionize gene therapies. A series of ...

In addition to the nucleus, eukaryotic cells may contain several other types of organelles, which may include mitochondria, chloroplasts, the endoplasmic reticulum, the Golgi apparatus ...

One hypothesis is that the DNA loops could determine which genes are switched on in the cell. Inside a nucleus, chromosomes jumble together like a game of Twister. This can bring regulatory elements, ...

Each component of a cell has its own function. Animal and plant cells differ and they have similarities. Nucleus, cell membrane, cytoplasm and mitochondria are four cell components that are found ...

Organelles in cells were originally often independent cells, which were incorporated by host cells and lost their ...

Read the paper: Overlapping nuclear import and export paths unveiled by two-colour MINFLUX In organisms that have cells with a nucleus, DNA is stored in this compartment, which is surrounded by a ...

Contributor Content The consumer health landscape is shifting. As AI-powered insights, genetic testing, and preventative health tools gain traction, a new generation of companies is emerging to ...
