DNA is packaged tightly within the cell’s nuclear membranes, which contain channels that regulate the transit of macromolecules governing all of life’s functions. Yale University researchers have built a nanoscale replica of this channel and have...
All DNA is sealed within the cell’s nuclear membrane, which protects it from molecular marauders. But what happens when that protective envelope rips? Yale researchers tracked the repair process in developing embryos of the worm C. elegans.
In cells with...
Optimism about the future of others is widespread even in the face of bad news — at least if the person is someone we care about. However, we can feel this optimism even for strangers if they possess a few admirable attributes, a new study by Yale and...
