DNA is well-known for its double helix shape. But did you know the human genome also contains more than 50,000 unusual ‘knot’-like DNA structures called i-motifs? Garvan researchers have created the first comprehensive map of i-motifs, showing they’re concentrated in key functional areas of the genome. Understanding these hidden structures may open up new approaches for treatment and diagnosis of diseases, including cancer. Congratulations to Cristian David Pena Martinez, A/Prof Sarah Kummerfeld and Prof Daniel Christ who led this research. Read more about this: https://ow.ly/a4k650TcN3R
