Whether you turn red when drinking alcohol, dislike certain smells, or metabolize drugs differently from others, the ...

More than a decade after the first Neanderthal genome was sequenced, scientists are still working to understand how ...

When cells proliferate, genomic DNA is precisely duplicated once per cell cycle. Abnormalities in this DNA replication ...

Human gene maps contain major blind spots because they were built largely from the DNA sequences of people with European ...

DNA synthesis is going global. The biosecurity rules aren’t keeping up.

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

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

A new study reports that the locations where genes begin are particularly prone to mutations, and these genetic changes can ...

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, ...
