“Our work is the first to directly test how chromosome structure affects bacterial growth, survival, and ability to cause ...

Researchers for the first time have successfully fused two chromosomes in mice and shown that the new karyotype can be transmitted to offspring. The researchers used a strategy that involved haploid ...

Researchers have discovered how the MSL complex responsible for dosage compensation can distinguish the X chromosome from autosomes in flies. A lab used a unique research approach to determine the ...

For decades, the Y chromosome – one of the two human sex chromosomes – has been notoriously challenging for the genomics community to sequence due to the complexity of its structure. Now, this elusive ...
