A new study challenges the conventional wisdom surrounding genome stability within closely related organisms and sheds new light on the mechanisms underlying extensive genome size variation. Our ...

Ciliate protozoa exemplify an extraordinary interplay between genome architecture, developmental rearrangements and evolutionary innovation. These single-celled eukaryotes possess two distinct nuclei ...

Plant mitochondrial genomes are among the most structurally and functionally dynamic of all eukaryotic organelles. They vary widely in size, gene content and physical conformation, often existing as a ...

A computational model of the more than 26 million atoms in a DNA-packed viral capsid expands our understanding of virus structure and DNA dynamics, insights that could provide new research avenues and ...

In part 2 of this webinar, Dr. Emily Hodges, assistant professor of biochemistry at Vanderbilt University, will reveal new data that illustrates how the Hodges Lab is utilizing the 6-base genome to ...

SALT LAKE CITY - Evolution is often thought of as a gradual remodeling of the genome, the genetic blueprints for building an organism. In some instances it might be more appropriate to call it an ...

A dendritic cell and a T-cell are depicted dancing in the foreground, under the dazzling lights reflected from a disco ball. In the background, a malignant cancer cell is depicted dancing with another ...

The mystery of the Greenland shark’s incredible longevity may finally be unraveling with the creature's first genome map.

SMBE Journals (Molecular Biology and Evolution and Genome Biology and Evolution) Generating genome sequence data from six additional C. psl. strains that differed markedly in the size of their genomes ...
