A new bioinformatics technique allows researchers to study three key processes inside the cell simultaneously.

MELK, a protein previously thought to be implicated in cancer, has been shown to be unrelated to the disease.

DNA is folded into loops by a protein called condensin, and the process has been filmed for the first time.

'Origami' models of DNA nucleotides have been visualized in three dimensions, giving insight into how DNA is formed.

The gene editing technology CRISPR has been used to restore normal activity in neurons affected by Fragile X Syndrome.

Rapid evolution can suppress the effect of pro-production genes in biochemical processes.

Extensive details about the migration and lives of prehistoric Europeans have been revealed by a huge new genomic study.

CAMERA, a CRISPR-based cell recording system, could provide science with a whole new level of detail into cellular events.

A computer model developed by Museum researchers may provide new insight into the origins of phagocytosis, the process by which single-celled organisms “eat” other cells as a means of absorbing nutrients or eliminating pathogens.

STEEL, a noncoding RNA, acts on genes to stimulate produce of blood vessels, a finding which could advance efforts to combat heart disease.
