Maintaining cells in the quiescent G 0 phase of the cell division cycle is achieved by suppressing the expression of genes required for cell-cycle progression. In the May 10 Science, Hidesato Ogawa ...

When genes are coiled and compacted into chromatin, they're no longer accessible to transcription factors. So how does the cell know where ... actually change the conformation of nearby DNA.

The most obvious difference between interphase and mitosis involves the appearance of a cell's chromosomes. During interphase, individual chromosomes are not visible, and the chromatin appears ...

Short-chain fatty acids influence gene regulation and chromatin accessibility, highlighting their role in colorectal cancer and normal cellular processes.
