A comprehensive plastid genome study of the nettle tribe Elatostemateae reveals large inversions, dramatic inverted repeat ...

Researchers have assembled the first gap-free telomere-to-telomere genome of the sword bean and used multi-omics profiling of ...

AI-designed proteins improved targeted DNA insertion in cultured cells, with one variant doubling the performance of an ...

From Avery’s genetic material discovery to the Human Genome Project’s 3 billion base pairs, major life-science advances faced ...

I have completed a master's degree in a science-related graduate school and work as a researcher at a manufacturing company.

Tiny single-celled organisms help keep lakes clear, but some can also contaminate the water. An international research team ...

The human genome is an easy place to get lost. Only 2% of its three billion letters encode proteins, and the rest is diabolically hard to decipher. An artificial-intelligence-generated ‘atlas’ of the ...

Haoyu Cheng, PhD, assistant professor of biomedical informatics and data science at Yale School of Medicine, has developed a new algorithm capable of building complete human genomes using standard ...

Genetic information may play an increasingly important role in the personalized preventive medicine of the future.

DNA can be more than just a double helix. When four strands are folded into a compact bundle, they form a G-quadruplex (G4).

The genome of Jonathan the giant tortoise, a 194-year-old resident of St Helena island, has been probed to understand how he has been alive for more than double his species’ average life expectancy ...

The ATR–ATRIP kinase complex safeguards genome integrity by coordinating cellular responses to DNA damage and replication stress. Two recent cryo-EM studies resolve the structural basis of ATR–ATRIP ...
