A microorganism has been discovered that breaks biology’s golden rule. This genetic twist could change everything.

Despite awe-inspiring diversity, nearly every lifeform—from bacteria to blue whales—shares the same genetic code. How and when this code came about has been the subject of much scientific controversy.

An archaeon reads the same codon in two different ways, overturning a doctrine that has stood for 60 years. Living organisms ...

Karthik and her team aimed to use CRISPR as a way to identify and isolate a protein generated by the bacteria that cause Lyme disease.

Researchers discovered that a long-misunderstood protein plays a key role in helping chromosomes latch onto the right “tracks” during cell division. Instead of acting like a motor, it works more like ...
