Our genomes are filled with errors that were once impossible to correct. But in CRISPR, we finally found an extraordinarily ...

Researchers are investigating the role of non-coding DNA, or junk DNA, in regulating astrocytes, brain cells involved in Alzheimer's disease.

Following the surprising discovery that our genetic blueprint is much simpler than expected, we’ve rapidly learned that we ...

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

Non-coding DNA is essential for both humans and trypanosomes, despite the large evolutionary divergence between these two species.

DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave.

Non-coding DNA variants contribute to acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) chemotherapy resistance. St. Jude Children's Research Hospital scientists have identified specific DNA variants in the ...

A centuries-old sketch may be holding more than artistic secrets—it might carry traces of Leonardo da Vinci himself. A team ...
