Migrating newborn neurons suffer routine double-strand DNA breaks from physical stress during brain development.

Researchers from Arizona State University and an international team have found that so-called junk DNA molecules, known as ...

DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave. Researchers have now mapped this hidden architecture in unprecedented detail, showing ...

Many repetitive regions of the genome have been considered "junk DNA" because the available technologies did not allow them to be studied at sufficient resolution. This is the case for the SST1/NBL2 ...
