A team of scientists studying cell division developed a special light microscopy system and used it to analyze the molecular density of cellular environments. Their results provide a novel insight ...

Standard cytogenetic techniques enable all human chromosomes to be stained and identified individually by their unique banding patterns. Routine cytogenetic analysis has a 400–500 band resolution and ...

The Telomere-to-Telomere (T2T) consortium, co-led by UC Santa Cruz Genomics Institute Associate Director Karen Miga and National Institutes of Health Genomics Research Institute Senior Investigator ...

Despite the immense amount of genetic material present in each cell, around three billion base pairs in humans, this material ...

THE structure of DNA is now known and the external form of mitotic chromosomes of higher organisms is fairly well characterized in the light microscope. However, the way in which chromosomes are ...

Jenny Graves receives funding from the Australian Research Council. If you look at cells from a human or other mammal under a microscope, you’ll see big fat molecular complexes called chromosomes that ...

The M25 multi-focus microscope uses separate cameras to capture images from 25 focal planes at different depths in a sample. (Photo by Eduardo Hirata) The aberration-corrected multi-focus microscopy ...

Agrobacterium tumefaciens magnified 15,000 times in an image captured earlier this year with a scanning electron microscope at Iowa State University's Roy J. Carver High Resolution Microscopy Facility ...

In Denmark, more and more people are experiencing problems with fertility. In more than half of the miscarriages that occur during the first 12 weeks, it is because the fetus has a chromosome defect.
