Scientists at Feinberg are reshaping scientific understanding of the cell's tiniest components—structures once thought to be static, now revealed to be dynamic engines of cellular life. As they probe ...

Dysfunctions of the tiny cell processes (primary cilia) of the pancreatic beta cells could be a cause of type 2 diabetes. Little is known about the structure and function of these cilia. An ...

The study demonstrates that TRF2 goes beyond its traditional role of capping chromosome ends. In muscle stem cells, TRF2 ...

Researchers have mapped DNA methylation and 3D genome contacts in the same cells. The atlas uncovers cell-type-specific ...

Biomedical research typically follows a familiar path: developing treatments that block, enhance or mutate certain signaling pathways, genes or proteins to change the function of different cells in ...

Researchers have profiled the molecular structure and features of a key part of the deadly Nipah virus. Experiments in cells showe how changes in the viral polymerase -- a protein involved in viral ...
