The centromere is necessary for the transport of chromosomes during cell division and, therefore, for the correct ...

Scientists engineered stem cells with “interrupted” CAG repeats to break up the toxic stretch. This may stop expansion, and could improve problems in cells that model Huntington’s disease. This study ...

The journey started with an enigma in the zebrafish embryo: some endothelial cells, actively involved in the initial stages ...

Small, cancer-associated DNA circles "hitchhike" on chromosomes during cell division to spread efficiently to daughter cells by co-opting a process used to maintain cellular identity through ...

Science, founded by Thomas A. Edison in 1880 and published by AAAS, today ranks as the world's largest circulation general science journal. Published 51 times a year, Science is renowned for its ...
