Google’s artificial intelligence research laboratory where AlphaFold was developed—has officially released a new machine ...

Gene therapy holds the promise of preventing and curing disease by manipulating gene expression within a patient's cells. However, to be effective, the new gene must make it into a cell's nucleus. The ...

Once disregarded as “junk DNA,” scientists now know that this molecular dark matter is crucial for determining gene activity ...

Every time a cell divides, it must copy its entire genome so that each daughter cell inherits a complete set of DNA. During that process, enzymes known as polymerases race along the DNA to copy its ...

DNA can mimic protein functions by folding into elaborate, three-dimensional structures, according to a new study. DNA can mimic protein functions by folding into elaborate, three-dimensional ...

Artificial intelligence has gotten a bad reputation lately, and often for good reason. But a team of scientists at Google’s ...

Although DNA is tightly packed and protected within the cell nucleus, it is constantly threatened by damage from normal ...

A change in the DNA sequence of a codon may not change the corresponding amino acid residue in the encoded protein because each residue can be encoded by several codons. This is called the Wobble ...
