In a new study, stem cell scientists at the Lund University, Sweden, explore the role of non-coding regions of the genome—previously deemed to be functionless “junk” DNA—and find humans and ...
Scientists have found that non-coding 'junk' DNA, far from being harmless and inert, could potentially contribute to the development of cancer. Their study has shown how non-coding DNA can get in the ...

Why some organs age faster than others: Scientists discover hidden mutations in non-coding DNA
The accumulation of mutations in DNA is often mentioned as an explanation for the aging process, but it remains just one ...
In human cells, there are about 20,000 genes on a two-meter DNA strand—finely coiled up in a nucleus about 10 micrometers in ...
