Researchers Bend DNA Strands with Light, Revealing a New Way to Study the Genome

 

With the flick of a light, researchers have found a way to rearrange life’s basic tapestry, bending DNA strands back on themselves to reveal the material nature of the genome. Scientists have long debated the physics of chromosomes—structures at the deepest interior of a cell that are made of long DNA strands tightly coiled around […]
