Scientists mapping the human body at the cellular level keep running into the same surprise: beneath the apparent chaos of ...

After centuries of mapping the human body in ever-finer detail, scientists are still making discoveries. Here we are, in 2025, and a previously unknown cellular structure that could be vital to our ...

DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave.

The exchange of cells between a mother and a fetus is a well-documented phenomenon that scientists have known about for more ...

YAHOO.COM - Sixty years after scientists described the chemical code of life — an interweaving double helix called DNA — researchers have found four-stranded DNA is also lurking in human cells. The ...

Inside human cells, biology has pulled off the ultimate packing job, figuring out how to fit six feet of DNA into a nucleus about one-tenth as wide as a human hair while making sure the all-important ...

Researchers identify a shared RNA-protein interaction that could lead to broad-spectrum antiviral treatments for ...

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a crucial organelle present in eukaryotic cells, including human cells. The ER plays a vital part in making sure proteins are properly constructed, and that they get ...

Most mutations that cause disease by swapping one amino acid out for another do so by making the protein less stable, according to a major study of human protein variants that was published in Nature ...
