When people think of DNA, they usually think of genes, the parts that code for proteins and drive inherited traits. But there ...

If you've ever struggled to reduce your carb intake, ancient DNA might be to blame. It has long been known that humans carry multiple copies of a gene that allows us to begin breaking down complex ...

A deeper understanding of how DNA changes over generations helps scientists learn why people differ and how diseases develop.

Alternatively, the bacterium may ingest long DNA strands and then digest them. This accounts for the fast growth of E. coli in the presence of DNA.

Some DNA test stories even involve crimes and cover-ups. To find out more about these real-life plot twists, Reader’s Digest dug into reports of the most shocking DNA results.

Biomedical researchers have developed a new, less expensive way to detect nuclease digestion -- one of the critical steps in many nucleic acid sensing applications, such as those used to identify ...

The mouth is where digestion begins, and it breaks down food into smaller particles. Read more about the functions and biological structure of the mouth.

Regeneron reports that eliminating endonuclease can save approximately $100,000 per 500-L batch without sacrificing yield.

UCSF researchers recently created the world's first shape-shifting synthetic proteins using artificial intelligence (AI). The breakthrough opens the door to developing entirely new proteins that could ...

To produce transgenic mice which will express a new gene function based on the DNA construct provided by the investigator. The transgene will be randomly incorporated within the germ line of the mouse ...

AnnaLynne McCord, who plays the DAYS mystery woman who may or may not be Abigail, previews what goes down when a DNA test is taken.
