Researchers have demonstrated a novel AI model that can predict which DNA molecules bind with other DNA molecules. A more ...

The new discovery suggests that sugar, essential to life on Earth, may have come from space.

In most modern cells, DNA stores the genetic blueprint, and relies on proteins to replicate, repair and build from those ...

Many cancer-associated mutational signatures remain unexplained. Team CAUSE aims to connect DNA damage, mutational patterns, ...

Abstract: Origins of replication sites (ORIs) are crucial genomic regions where DNA replication initiation takes place, playing pivotal roles in fundamental biological processes like cell division, ...

An artificial cell assembled from non-living chemical components has been created that can take in nutrients, grow, divide ...

Tiny, quivering spheres designed to feed and multiply raise prospect of artificial organisms to make drugs, food and fuel ...

Cell division is an elaborate dance shared between protein and DNA partners. This fluorescence microscope video captures the initial cell division right after in vitro fertilization of a roundworm ...

In 1869, Swiss scientist Friedrich Miescher isolated a mysterious substance from cell nuclei—an overlooked finding that would later reshape biology and our understanding of life itself. A ...

When cells proliferate, genomic DNA is precisely duplicated once per cell cycle. Abnormalities in this DNA replication process can cause alterations in genomic DNA, promoting cellular ageing, cancer, ...

What determines a cell’s identity isn’t the genes within but how they’re used. To read and interpret this genetic material, cells rely on transcription factors. These proteins bind to specific regions ...

The Age of AI will rely on massive volumes of data that can be easily stored and retrieved—and bioscience may have an ingenious solution. A scientist examines a DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) profile on ...
