Long-read sequencing technologies analyze long, continuous stretches of DNA. These methods have the potential to improve ...

At some point, RNA must have replicated itself before the evolutionary arrival of DNA and proteins, and now we might know how ...

Early research shows that editing expanding trinucleotide repeats halts the lengthening process that causes neurological ...

In a leap forward for genetic and biomedical research, two scientists at the University of Missouri have developed a powerful ...

Chemists at UCL and the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology have demonstrated how RNA (ribonucleic acid) might have ...

Part of the UK’s prestigious Russell Group, the University of Liverpool will welcome its 1st batch of UG & PG students in its ...

At its heart, Berkshire wasn’t built on structure — it was built on trust. Charlie Munger described it best as a “seamless web of deserved trust”, not layers of compliance or convoluted incentives.

Genetic mutations occur everyday in our cells, but the vast majority of them are repaired. New research finds DNA repair is not on PAR in HD cells, causing mutations to build up in people with HD.

“This is the first step towards the use of gene editing therapies to treat a wide variety of rare genetic disorders for which there are currently no definitive medical treatments,” said Dr. Kiran ...

But in complex organisms, these switches are sometimes separated from the genes that they regulate by long lines of DNA letters, sometimes numbering ... also determined that different proteins help ...

As such, the sequence of the pore-threading DNA strands is decoded. The structure of the nanopore greatly influences many aspects of the sensing process, for example the speed at which the DNA can be ...

But the same genetic sequence, depending on its structure, can also recruit the molecules needed to turn codons into proteins. And sometimes, the same DNA letters can turn one gene into different ...
