Your DNA is continually damaged by sources both inside and outside your body. One especially severe form of damage called a ...

Gene editing is traditionally done using CRISPR-Cas9 to make a physical change in the DNA. A guide RNA directs the Cas9 protein to a specific DNA location, where Cas9 completely severs the DNA ...

Each protein is encoded by a gene in our DNA. To make a protein, our cells make a copy of this gene in the form of a molecule called messenger RNA, or mRNA.

Now Google’s DeepMind division says it’s made a leap in trying to understand the code with AlphaGenome, an AI model that ...

UCSF researchers recently created the world's first shape-shifting synthetic proteins using artificial intelligence (AI). The ...

Macquarie University researchers have discovered a naturally occurring protein found in human cells plays a powerful role in repairing damaged DNA—the molecule that carries the genetic instructions ...

A study by Children's Medical Research Institute (CMRI) researchers reveals a new group of proteins that guide the powerful ...

DNA vaccines have several potential advantages over traditional and even mRNA vaccines: They can be developed quickly. It’s easier to create large amounts of a gene than to make proteins or grow ...

By engineering the small but powerful protein TnpB, we were able to design a variant that shows a 4.4-fold increase in efficiency of modifying DNA - making it more effective as a gene editing tool." ...

Genes are sections of DNA a person inherits from their biological parents. They contain information for making specific proteins, or segments of proteins, which have differing functions within the ...
