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

Researchers at The University of Tokyo developed TECHNO, a two-step genome editing strategy that replaces entire mouse loci ...

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

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

Cells are defined by the genes they express. In human cells, there are thousands of different protein coding genes, and the expression of those genes is carefully orchestrated and controlled by a ...

The human genome has to be carefully organized so it will fit inside of the nuclei of cells, while also remaining accessible ...

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 ...

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and others have identified a neurodevelopmental disorder, caused by mutations in a single gene, that affects tens of thousands of people ...

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