An analysis of genetic data from over 900,000 people shows that certain stretches of DNA, made up of short sequences repeated ...

An HIV-derived nucleoside therapy now treats rare genetic diseases by restoring mitochondrial DNA and improving muscle ...

Scientists discovered that aging DNA repeats expand at wildly different speeds—and in some people, the consequences can be devastating. A sweeping genetic study drawing on data from more than 900,000 ...

DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave.

Geneticist Dr. Robert Green is sequencing the DNA of healthy newborns to find hidden disease risks. This knowledge can save lives — but gene sequencing is not a crystal ball.

The MCM helicase is broadly bound across the genome, and its phosphorylation is antagonistically regulated by the kinase DDK and the phosphatase RIF1–PP1. TRESLIN–MTBP recognises the phosphorylated ...

Artificial intelligence has just redrawn the map of our genome’s control room, revealing hundreds of thousands of tiny DNA ...

Researchers have discovered how cells activate a last-resort DNA repair system when severe damage strikes. When genetic ...

For decades, biology textbooks taught that DNA’s story could be told with a single image: two elegant strands twisting in a ...

In a first, scientists have extracted DNA from a Renaissance-era drawing attributed to Leonardo da Vinci, but they can't be ...
