New work from UC Davis and the University of Utah shows how the 3D structure of DNA inside a germ cell commits it to develop into a sperm cell. The discovery could improve understanding of fertility ...
Two new landmark studies show how a seeming tangle of DNA is actually organized into a structure that coordinates thousands of genes to form a sperm cell. The work, published March 3 as two papers in ...
A peer-reviewed, multi-clinic study published in the Journal of Assisted Reproduction and Genetics suggests an epigenetic ...
Scientists have uncovered how certain “selfish” genes cheat the normal rules of inheritance by destroying rival sperm cells.
India, March 17 -- Selfish chromosomes bias genetic inheritance by manipulating the overdrive (Ovd) gene, a natural sperm quality control checkpoint.
Researchers at Newcastle University in England report they have coaxed the first human sperm cells from embryonic stem cells, in a remarkable demonstration of how quickly the field of stem-cell ...
