This work will be of high interest to a broad swathe of scientists studying native macromolecules present at low concentrations in cells. Cryo-EM single-particle analyses typically require target ...
Chromosomes are cellular structures that contain the genetic material. A chromosome is comprised of a single DNA molecule that may be either circular or linear. The full complement of a cell s ...
So why has the male-determining chromosome been shrinking? And what does this mean for the future of men and humankind as a whole? Let’s start with some basic biology: in the nucleus of a human cell, ...
Errors in chromosome segregation during cell division can lead to chromosomal instability, a key feature of cancer. These errors result in the formation of micronuclei, which are small structures ...
