How can DNA condensate despite its negative charge? Implications in genome regulation, antibiotic resistance and gene therapy

University of York
School of Physics, Engineering and Technology
  Research Group: Physics of Life
DNA molecules, being highly negatively charged, naturally repel each other. However, in the presence of multivalent ions or specific proteins, they can overcome this repulsion and condense into compact structures. Read more

EASTBIO - The hidden role of acrocentric short arms in genome instability

University of Edinburgh
School of Genetics and Cancer (College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine)
The short arms of acrocentric chromosomes 13, 14, 15, 21 and 22 are among the least understood regions of the human genome. They consist of highly repetitive DNA (rDNA arrays, satellite repeats and segmental duplications), meaning much of their sequence is missing from canonical references like hg38. Read more
