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.

DNA replication is a process of critical importance to the cell, and must be coordinated precisely to ensure that genomic information is duplicated once and only once during each cell cycle. Using ...

DNA flows inside a cell's nucleus in a choreographed line dance, new simulations reveal. The finding is the first large-scale explanation of genetic material moving within a working cell. The dancing ...

Researchers at the Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS), in collaboration with American scientists, have uncovered a new parvovirus strategy for reaching the cell nucleus which is ...

Smuggling its genome into the nucleus is essential for HIV to infect its host, but entering the cell’s control center is no easy feat. Molecules must pass through tightly-regulated nuclear pores on ...
