AlphaGenome can analyse up to 1m letters of DNA code at once and could pave way for new treatments ...

The genetic code acts as life’s instruction manual, telling cells how to build proteins from DNA and RNA. Though it's a marvel of molecular precision, the path it took to evolve remains unclear. Fresh ...

For decades, aging has looked like a one-way street, a slow accumulation of damage written into our cells. Now a wave of ...

Researchers from CSIRO, Australia's national science agency, have unlocked the most detailed genetic blueprint yet of a major ...

Decades of research has viewed DNA as a sequence-based instruction manual; yet every cell in the body shares the same genes – so where is the language that writes the memory of cell identities?

A team from the University of Illinois has uncovered surprising evolutionary links between the genetic code and tiny protein fragments called dipeptides. By analyzing billions of dipeptide sequences ...

To overcome the inherent challenge of translation termination interference caused by stop codon reprogramming in mammalian cells, researchers from Peking University led by Chen Peng from College of ...

In recent years, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved more than a dozen gene-editing and cell-based therapies. We are now in the second great wave of the genetic revolution, not defined ...

DNA consists of a code language comprising four letters which make up what are known as codons, or words, each three letters long. Interpreting the language of the genetic code was the work of ...

Synthetic biologists from Yale were able to re-write the genetic code of an organism — a novel genomically recoded organism (GRO) with one stop codon — using a cellular platform that they developed ...
