Chronic and viral infections can literally exhaust certain key cells in the immune system from a constant barrage of attacks.

Chromatin is a structure in the cell nucleus that helps pack DNA tightly by wrapping it around proteins called histones. These DNA-protein units, called nucleosomes, control how genes are turned on or ...

Researchers from the Cancer Science Institute of Singapore (CSI Singapore) at NUS have developed a new method that allows ...

Certain epigenetic modifications can directly control how genetic material is packed in the nucleus, RIKEN researchers have shown. This has important implications for our understanding of how genes ...

T cells are specialized immune cells responsible for identifying and targeting infections. When the body experiences ...

The way the body ages could be more resilient than previously thought, a new study suggests. Published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, the work by researchers at King's College London ...

Scientists at MD Anderson Cancer Center have revealed how ATRX mutations restructure chromatin and activate oncogenic ...

Chromatin's structure plays an important regulatory role in DNA template-dependent processes including transcription, replication, recombination, repair, segregation, chromosomal stability, cell cycle ...

A 1,563‑sample chromatin atlas reveals 16 epigenomic subgroups of AML, redefining disease classification, prognosis, and therapeutic vulnerabilities.
