Aging men often lose the Y chromosome in a growing number of their cells—and it may be far more dangerous than once believed. This loss has been linked to heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer’s, and ...
Researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have built a computer simulation that tracks the entire life cycle ...
When bacteria cells replicate, they do so a little differently than human cells do. They don't undergo mitosis, a splitting that involves construction of spindles to carefully separate the DNA after ...

A new computational tool infers changes occurring at the ends of the chromosomes housing our DNA. It does so by detecting structural alterations in cells and tissues captured in images taken of ...
For many years, scientists have delved into human chromosomes and the DNA they carry, studying the genetic code in each cell ...
