The DNA packed inside every human cell contains instructions for life, written in billions of letters of genetic code. Every time a cell divides, the complete code, divided among 46 chromosomes, must ...

MSK researchers are shedding new light on G-quadruplexes, a type of secondary DNA structure that can cause DNA replication to stall. The structures are a potential therapeutic target in cancer. Image ...

Non-coding DNA is essential for both humans and trypanosomes, despite the large evolutionary divergence between these two species.

MASPIN (“tumor suppressor shield”): MASPIN is a natural defense protein that blocks tumor invasion, regulates cell migration and angiogenesis, promotes apoptosis, and enhances treatment sensitivity.
