If someone — like a disgruntled scientist, terror group, or rogue nation — were to synthesize and unleash smallpox, we could ...

New 'cassette tape' made of DNA has the capacity to store 36 petabytes of data, which could change the future of digital ...

Researchers demonstrated that it is feasible to encode executable payloads into synthetic DNA that, once sequenced and ...

Cornell (NY, USA) researchers have found that a new DNA sequencing technology can be used to study how transposons move ...

Biologists have used machine learning, a type of AI, to identify 'synthetic extreme' DNA sequences with specifically designed functions in gene activation. They tested 50 million DNA sequences and ...

When it comes to critical care for newborns, being able to act fast is of the utmost importance, which is why this new DNA tech is so important.

Researchers discovered that stiff DNA segments inside nucleosomes physically block chromatin remodeling. The remodeling machinery normally shifts DNA by creating 20–30 base-pair loops, but these ...

A closeup look at colibactin’s structure reveals chemical motifs that guide its mutation-wreaking “warheads” to specific stretches of DNA.

In the past twenty years, major technological advances in extracting and analyzing DNA have transformed the ability to ...

With a new study in the journal Cell, researchers at Stanford University and Stockholm University have contributed to ...
