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, ...

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 ...

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.

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.

This study provides a valuable new resource to investigate the molecular basis of the particular features characterizing the pipefish embryo. The authors found both unique and shared gene expression ...
