A recent study published in Cell reveals that the repeated DNA sequence that leads to Huntington’s disease (HD) expands ...

How is all of that DNA packaged so tightly into chromosomes and squeezed into a tiny nucleus? Histones are a family of small, positively charged proteins termed H1, H2A, H2B, H3, and H4 (Van Holde ...

What do a human, a rose, and a bacterium have in common? Each of these things — along with every other organism on Earth — contains the molecular instructions for life, called deoxyribonucleic ...

JERUSALEM, Jan. 21 (Xinhua) -- Researchers have identified ancient proteins that may help explain how the first complex cells evolved from simpler ones over 1.5 billion years ago, Israel's Ben-Gurion ...

In most animal, plant and fungal cells DNA is stored in the nucleus coiled up in thread-like structures called chromosomes. The nucleus of one of your skin cells contains about two metres of DNA ...

DNA has to be carefully packaged and organized in cells so it will both physically fit into the nucleus, but will also remain ...

These proteins in turn will help to make up certain characteristics. DNA is found inside the nucleus of every cell. There is no DNA in mature red blood cells because they do not have a nucleus.
