A bizarre genetic code found in a microscopic pond organism is rewriting what scientists thought DNA could do
In a shallow pond at Oxford University Parks, surrounded by dog walkers and rowing crews, a single-celled organism has been ...
Genetic activity underlies biological functions, so organisms have to make sure that the right genes are expressed at the ...
The DNA of nearly all life on Earth contains many redundancies, and scientists have long wondered whether these redundancies served a purpose or if they were just leftovers from evolutionary processes ...

Human genes are written in long strings of three-letter units composed of four different nucleotides. These units—or codons—specify one of many amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. Multiple ...
A study by IRB Barcelona reveals that transfer RNA (tRNA) genes accumulate mutations at a frequency up to nine times higher than average. These mutations specifically target the region that "reads" ...

Cracking the code of life’s language
Scientists are uncovering the deep history and mechanics of the genetic code, the universal biochemical language shared by nearly all life. New research links its origins to early protein structures ...
