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 ...

A new article analyzes in depth the physical problems associated with DNA packaging that have often been neglected in structural models of chromosomes. The study demonstrates that the multilaminar ...

DNA contains foundational information needed to sustain life. Understanding how this information is stored and organized has been one of the greatest scientific challenges of the last century. With ...

Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have performed a comprehensive evaluation of five artificial intelligence (AI) models trained on genomic sequences, known as DNA ...

Arc Institute, a research organization that operates in collaboration with UC Berkeley, has released an artificial intelligence model that can classify and generate strands of DNA. This technology has ...

CpG density and epigenetic modification state modulate DNA mechanics, altering its intrinsic compatibility with nucleosome formation.

In a recent study published in PNAS, researchers introduced the Genomic Pre-trained Network (GPN), a multispecies model developed to learn genome-wide variant effects by self-supervised pretraining on ...

In human cells, there are about 20,000 genes on a two-meter DNA strand—finely coiled up in a nucleus about 10 micrometers in diameter. By comparison, this corresponds to a 40-kilometer thread packed ...

In a recent study published in The Lancet Digital Health, researchers discuss the development and validation of a combined model comprising imaging, clinical, and cell-free deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) ...

Anthropologist Carla Handley is sitting cross-legged in a mud-walled house in a Kenyan village called Merti. She's meeting with a man dressed in a flowing blue robe and a woven cap of red and white.
