Led by biomedical engineer Vadim Backman, the study reveals that DNA’s 3D physical structure holds a “geometric code” — a ...

In a major scientific breakthrough, researchers have created the first comprehensive genetic resource to identify people at ...

EMBL researchers created SDR-seq, a next-generation tool that decodes both DNA and RNA from the same cell. It finally opens ...

The same amino acid can be encoded by anywhere from one to six different strings of letters in the genetic code. Andrzej Wojcicki/Science Photo Library via Getty Images Nearly all life, from bacteria ...

An international team led by a University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine scientist has created a first-of-its-kind resource ...

Each cell has their own genetic code that helps maintain viability and directs function. This genetic code is commonly referred to as deoxyribonucleic acid or DNA. DNA is the molecule that carries ...

Researchers at Monash University in Melbourne, Australia, have uncovered the hidden code governing how genetic mutations affect RNA splicing and result in disease. The researchers were able to ...

A team from the University of Illinois has uncovered surprising evolutionary links between the genetic code and tiny protein fragments called dipeptides. By analyzing billions of dipeptide sequences ...

Approximately one in five adults with spontaneous coronary artery dissection with high-risk features had an increased burden of rare genetic variants on whole-exome sequencing, suggesting testing may ...

DNA consists of a code language comprising four letters which make up what are known as codons, or words, each three letters long. Interpreting the language of the genetic code was the work of ...

We are now in the second great wave of the genetic revolution, not defined by reading the human code of life, but by rewriting it.
