There is an enormous gap between our ability to build DNA and our understanding ... represents a step towards closing that gap. Generation of synthetic versions of widely used model organisms ...

A unique feature of HR is that it repairs the damage to the DNA in a highly accurate way. In eukaryotic cells (those with a ...

Beginning a chain of events that will presumably lead to the origin of our universe's Spider-Man, researchers in Germany have ...

Molecules like DNA are capable of storing large amounts of data without requiring an energy source, but accessing this molecular data is expensive and time consuming. Researchers have now developed an ...

Creating the synthetic chromosome followed a step-by-step approach. Segments were produced separately in different yeast strains and then joined through mating and natural DNA mixing. Initially ...

Like DNA hard drives, the approach could lock the world's data down for the long haul—if researchers can make it practical.

Current setbacks cannot prevent gene-editing companies from advancing closer to “one-and-done” cures and new products.

The study achieved the storage and retrieval of an 11-character password from synthetic polymers without requiring ...

In the new study published in the Cell Press journal Chem, researchers were able to store and decode an 11-character password ...
