Our genomes are filled with errors that were once impossible to correct. But in CRISPR, we finally found an extraordinarily ...
You're walking around right now carrying the genetic fingerprints of infections that happened millions of years ago. Deep ...
Researchers are investigating the role of non-coding DNA, or junk DNA, in regulating astrocytes, brain cells involved in Alzheimer's disease.
(L to R) Co-first author Jackson Mobley, PhD, corresponding author Daniel Savic, PhD, and co-first author Kashi Raj Bhattarai, PhD, all of the St. Jude Department of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical ...
There are some genes that can promote cancer; they are sometimes called oncogenes, and in tumor cells, mutations are often found in these genes. When they are functioning normally, oncogenes are often ...
Non-coding DNA is essential for both humans and trypanosomes, despite the large evolutionary divergence between these two species.
Researchers discover a unique genetic code in Antarctic archaea that encodes a rare amino acid, potentially advancing protein engineering.
Irregularities in the body's genetic coding to make proteins are linked to cancerous tumors. But most genetic material contains elements whose function isn't clear. Could abnormalities in non-coding ...
Red chalk drawing called Holy Child that has been examined by scientists could hold the key to the legendary historical ...
