A research team led by the A*STAR Genome Institute of Singapore (A*STAR GIS) have developed a method to accurately and ...

Scientists from Oxford's Radcliffe Department of Medicine have achieved the most detailed view yet of how DNA folds and ...

Unveiling a new chapter in the understanding of human genetics, scientists have discovered a hidden geometric code within our ...

Ever since the now Nobel-winning discovery of CRISPR genome editing in 2012, scientists have been racing to improve on its DNA-targeting-and-cutting action. A huge step forward came in 2016, with the ...

(Nanowerk News) A recent study by researchers from Peking University demonstrates the potential of nuclear electric resonance to control the nuclear spins of nitrogen atoms in DNA using electric field ...

The DNA of some viruses doesn’t use the same four nucleotide bases found in all other life. New work shows how this exception is possible and hints that it could be more common than we think. All life ...

DNA is the genetic material used by every living organism. But, in a few edge cases, the four bases of DNA—adenine, thymidine, cytosine, and guanine—undergo chemical modifications. And in viruses, ...

A computer made from strands of DNA in a test tube can calculate the square root of numbers up to 900. Chunlei Guo at the University of Rochester in New York state and colleagues developed a computer ...
