Innovative research into the gene-editing tool targets influenza’s ability to replicate—stopping it in its tracks.

Researchers discover a unique genetic code in Antarctic archaea that encodes a rare amino acid, potentially advancing protein ...

Tanning beds promise a quick glow, but a new study says the real cost is written deep into your skin. Researchers have found ...

This research team at the LSU AgCenter is racing against extreme weather disasters to advance genetic storage technology and ...

A major evolutionary theory says most genetic changes don’t really matter, but new evidence suggests that’s not true. Researchers found that helpful mutations happen surprisingly often. The twist is ...

A new study finds that at least one Archaea has surprisingly flexibility when interpreting genetic code, which goes against a ...

But some Neanderthal DNA helped modern humans survive and reproduce, and thus it has lingered in our genomes. Nowadays, ...

Proteins are among the most important molecular building blocks of life. They are chains of amino acids assembled in our cells by ribosomes, the molecular "protein factories" of our bodies. The ...

A small group of volunteers will receive multiple injections of the experimental treatments next month, says Unlimited Bio.

There are few hard and fast rules in the study of life, but perhaps the closest we get is the central dogma of molecular biology: DNA is transcribed to RNA, which gets translated into proteins. The ...

SEATTLE and NEW YORK – Genetic counselors are now able to bill for more of the time spent on providing services to patients with the adoption earlier this year of a new Current Procedural Terminology ...

Decades of research has viewed DNA as a sequence-based instruction manual; yet every cell in the body shares the same genes – so where is the language that writes the memory of cell identities?
