Scientists have long believed they understood how life’s genetic code evolved, but new research upends that assumption. By ...

By treating DNA as a language, Brian Hie’s “ChatGPT for genomes” could pick up patterns that humans can’t see, accelerating ...

Before species go extinct, their populations often shrink and become isolated. Healthy populations tend to have a large gene ...

The research shows that as long as essential genes remain intact, our genomes can tolerate significant structural changes, ...

Giant clams grow huge by relying on algae for energy. Scientists found genes that help them live with algae and grow big.

Furthermore, the Obelisks contain genetic code to create a similarly new class of proteins, which the researchers named Oblins, and the process is reportedly much different than that used by viruses.

Jan. 13, 2025 — Girolline, a compound extracted from the sea sponge Pseudaxinyssa cantharella, has been investigated for possible antitumor effects and also found to have anti-malarial effects ...

NASA's asteroid samples contain organic compounds and minerals that may have seeded early Earth with life's building blocks.

A large research team led by nanotechnologist Roy van der Meel rebuilt the body's own proteins and fats into nano-delivery ...

A method for genetically barcoding Drosophila is developed and used to tag defined cell populations in vivo for single-cell transcriptomics experiments and to enable multiplexed behavioral analysis.
