The serine 31 (Ser31) phosphorylation modification (H3.3S31ph) in the N-terminal tail of the histone variant H3.3 can ...

For decades, scientists have known that bacteria can exchange genetic material, in a process called horizontal gene transfer.

Fruit spoilage caused by Penicillium expansum, the fungus responsible for blue mold disease, poses major threats to food ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature, researchers identify the mechanisms through which double-stranded break (DSB)-induced compartment formation orchestrates the deoxyribonucleic acid ...

A mixture of DNA and proteins—known as "chromatin"—sits inside every cell nucleus as a jumbled puddle of genetic information. As cells prepare to divide during mitosis, the chromatin is condensed into ...

In a recent paper published on aBIOTECH, the authors integrated epigenomic, transcriptomic, and 3D genomic data to ...

Scientists at the Salk Institute say they have discovered that the Foxp3 protein is essential for creating the unique chromatin architecture of regulatory T cells and, in turn, promoting their immune ...

Uptake of cell-free chromatin particles released from dying cells and carrying non-coding DNA could redefine mammalian genomics.

Blue mold, caused by Penicillium expansum, is one of the most destructive postharvest diseases, leading to economic losses across fruit supply chains.
