flag Oxford researchers map DNA’s 3D structure at base-pair resolution, revealing gene regulation links to diseases.

flag Researchers led by Professor James Davies at Oxford University have published a landmark study in Cell, using a new technique called MCC ultra to map the 3D structure of DNA in human cells at base-pair resolution. flag The study reveals how non-coding regulatory elements interact with genes, showing how genetic variations can disrupt these interactions and contribute to diseases like autoimmune disorders, heart disease, and cancer. flag The findings, enabled by Nucleome Therapeutics’ exclusive license to MCC technology, provide a detailed map of gene regulatory circuits, offering new targets for precision medicine and drug development.
