Researchers around the world are working on new technologies to capture carbon from the atmosphere, but many approaches fall short on one key metric: their ability to scale. Nature, however, has ...

It’s important to note that researchers are likely at least 10 to 30 years away from creating mirror bacteria. On the timescale of a fast-moving field like synthetic biology, a decade is a very long ...

A sophisticated molecular machine, the spliceosome, ensures the accurate assembly of genetic information from the genome into mature mRNA after it has been transcribed into mRNA precursors.

Epigenetic alterations have emerged as critical factors in the pathogenesis of brain cancer, particularly gliomas. This article explores the impact of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) on the ...

DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the nucleic acid polymer that forms the genetic code for a cell or virus. Most DNA molecules consist of two polymers (double-stranded) of four nucleotides that each ...
