CHICAGO --- In a landmark effort to understand how the physical structure of our DNA influences human biology, Northwestern investigators and the 4D Nucleome Project have unveiled the most detailed ...

A review in the Journal of Systematics and Evolution defines the standards for high-quality genome assembly and annotation, ...

Scientists have sequenced the complete genome of a roundworm used extensively in biological research, opening a new pathway for synthetic biologists to build and test genetic changes in a ...

Salk Institute researchers profile 86,689 cells across 16 human tissues, linking cell-type-specific epigenetic features to disease risk and revealing that a cell’s 3D genome and DNA methylation don’t ...

An international team that includes researchers from Murdoch University's Centre for Crop and Food Innovation (CCFI) has built the most comprehensive genetic map of the peanut yet and used this new ...

A multi-institutional team of researchers has created a new and improved genetic map for the laboratory rat, a cornerstone in medical and scientific research. Known as GRCr8, this updated genome ...

Ramie (Boehmeria nivea) has been cultivated for thousands of years and is valued for strong bast fibers, nutritious green fodder, and bioactive compounds. chlorogenic acid (CGA), a phenylpropanoid ...

Scientists at deCODE genetics/Amgen have constructed a complete map of how human DNA is mixed as it is passed down during reproduction. The map marks a major step in the understanding of genetic ...

The human genome is no longer just a sequence to be read. It’s a dynamic structure that twists, folds, and reshapes itself in ways that help determine how life functions at the cellular level. In a ...
