(a) Fluorescence images showing the chromatin in FGO stained with DAPI. Scale bar, 20 μm. Yellow triangles indicate DAPI-dense heterochromatin foci and the red triangles denote the nucleoli or NLBs.
Researchers have identified the specific structural loops in G-quadruplex DNA that allow it to act as a chaperone, preventing ...
Not all DNA looks like the familiar double helix. Sometimes, parts of our genetic code fold into unusual shapes under certain conditions. One such structure known as a G-quadruplex (G4) looks like a ...
MSK researchers are shedding new light on G-quadruplexes, a type of secondary DNA structure that can cause DNA replication to stall. The structures are a potential therapeutic target in cancer. Image ...
