A routine experiment with a new single-cell DNA sequencing method turned into a surprising scientific twist when researchers ...

Researchers at the University of Oregon have developed an artificial intelligence tool that can read genetic code the way ...

DNA stores our genetic code. What if it could also be integrated with electronics to store and read other information?

Most hypotheses suggest that earlier forms of life had partial genetic codes and used fewer than 20 amino acids. To test ...

Every cell in the human body squeezes over six feet of DNA into a minuscule speck invisible to the naked eye—like compressing ...

Researchers use AI to discover 14 distinct nucleosome states, revealing that DNA packaging acts as a "volume dial" for gene ...

Scientists at UC Berkeley have discovered a microbe that bends one of biology’s most sacred rules. Instead of treating a specific three-letter DNA code as a clear “stop” signal, this methane-producing ...

Tiny organisms on the ground – bacteria and fungi – have a “superpower” that allows them to reach up into the atmosphere and pull down the rain, according to a recent study. To understand how a ...
