Could a gene regulatory network in gut microbes have evolved its elaborate and tightly regulated molecular machinery only to pump out antibiotics indiscriminately? Researchers show this is an ...

Hantavirus, which is rare, shot to public attention after a New Mexico medical examiner announced that Gene Hackman’s wife Betsy Arakawa had died after contracting the virus. The bodies of ...

By inserting an entire gene, the tool offers a one-and-done approach that overcomes hurdles from CRISPR gene editing technology—which is programmed to correct individual mutations—offering a ...

Actor Gene Padilla defended his brother, actor Dennis Padilla, against the negative comments after what he said about his daughter Claudia Barretto’s wedding. Dennis is known by many netizens and ...

One unique aspect of the mar system is the first transcription start signal it carries, the code that kick-starts genetic activity. This so-called "start codon" has an unusual GTG code (guanine ...

The Genetic Evolution Tournament (GET) is a Metaculus human judgment forecasting tournament established to generate forecasts and scenarios pertaining to the use of human genetic and reproductive ...

Though genetic material does not preserve well in arid climates, which is why much about ancient human populations in the Sahara remains a mystery, there was enough fragmented DNA to give insights ...
