Drugmakers are turning to biomarkers, like folate receptor alpha, and even cell therapies to tackle this deadly cancer in new ...

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 ...

While fundamental, research like this has "been the basis for many, many, many medical advances," Marko said, such as deep sequencing of DNA, where scientists can now sequence an entire human ...

One of the most commonly used gene-delivery methods relies on engineered viruses to insert stretches of genetic material into ...

"Our study provides crucial insight into how a genetic element that has come to make up a large part of human DNA can successfully invade the nucleus to copy itself," said Liam J. Holt, Ph.D ...

Modern DNA suggests that the Denisovans were surprisingly diverse—and may have been the last humans other than Homo sapiens on Earth. These piercing eyes belong to a reconstruction of a ...
