Visualising the genome: Cambridge scientists create first 3D structures of active DNA

Published on 16 March, 2017

Tim Stevens, in collaboration with scientists from the University of Cambridge, has determined the first 3D structures of intact mammalian genomes from individual cells, showing how the DNA from all the chromosomes intricately folds to fit together inside the cell nuclei. More…

Integral component of the Wnt enhancesome identified

Published on 16 March, 2017

The Wnt signalling pathway is an ancient cell communication pathway that has important roles in development and cancer. Wnt signals elicit context-dependent transcriptional responses by stabilising a cytoplasmic effector called beta-catenin. This controls the embryonic development of tissues and organs in all animals, from the most primitive ones all the way to humans. In addition, […]
