a, Chromatin structure efficiently packs DNA (orange line) into the nucleus. The basic unit of chromatin is the nucleosome, which consists of DNA wrapped around a core of histone proteins.

New imaging tools reveal how within an hour of infection, the virus begins to alter our chromosomes to kick-start its own replication.

Scientists have identified two proteins involved in regulating chromatin remodelling which could be promising therapeutic ...
