The oldest sediment DNA discovered so far comes from Greenland and is 2 million years old.

It has been claimed that because most of our DNA is active, it must be important, but now human-plant hybrid cells have been ...

A new study shows, for the first time, how the human genome folds and moves in 3D over time to control when genes turn on and ...

This study offers important insight into the pathogenic basis of intragenic frameshift deletions in the carboxy-terminal domain of MECP2, which account for some Rett syndrome cases, yet similar ...

The research represents a major step forward in revealing how the three dimensional form of DNA shapes the way human biology functions. In a major step toward understanding how the physical form of ...

Life may have emerged from a surprisingly simple network of chemical reactions long before cells or genes existed.

The 1800s saw the transition of the food industry from one of self-sufficiency to central mass production to support the ...

A new CRISPR approach can control genes without cutting DNA, opening a safer path for treating genetic diseases. A newly developed form of CRISPR at UNSW Sydney points to a safer way of treating ...

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