Recent scientific breakthroughs have transformed the once-dismissed non-coding DNA, or “junk DNA,” into a targeted weapon ...

Led by biomedical engineer Vadim Backman, the study reveals that DNA’s 3D physical structure holds a “geometric code” — a system that allows cells to compute, remember and adapt.

HUMANS could live for centuries after scientists have cracked the DNA code of the longest living mammal. The bowhead whale ...

EMBL researchers created SDR-seq, a next-generation tool that decodes both DNA and RNA from the same cell. It finally opens ...

Standard laboratory tests can fail to detect many disease-causing DNA changes. Now, a novel 3D chromosome mapping method can ...

and G—that make up the genetic code. The prevailing belief was that by decoding these sequences, we could unlock how cells and organisms fundamentally work. Now, research from Northwestern Engineering ...

Ribosomes are the cell's protein factories, which read the genetic code and assemble the proteins that every organism needs ...

Researchers at Monash University in Melbourne, Australia, have uncovered the hidden code governing how genetic mutations affect RNA splicing and result in disease. The researchers were able to ...
