A joint research team has developed an automated design technology that enables the creation of DNA origami structures that ...

Caltech researchers have identified a novel chemical reaction that could explain the formation of the building blocks of DNA and RNA, the molecules that encode all of life's functions. The work is an ...

Computational chemists at the University of Amsterdam's Van 't Hoff Institute for Molecular Sciences have developed a ...

Scientists have discovered that a gene normally considered a DNA-protecting "good guy" can become dangerous when cells make too much of it. The gene, EXO1, acts like molecular scissors that help ...

Base editing in human embryos reveals that NANOG is the one gene required to form every body tissue. Cambridge’s landmark ...

What can the shape of the nucleolus tell us about a cell’s response to drugs? Researchers use advanced microscopy techniques ...

The treatment, currently designated HTX-001, is an antisense oligonucleotide, or ASO, that targets Wisper and reduces the ...

Vitamin B12 is needed in microscopic amounts, but a shortage can have major effects on health and energy. The vitamin was first linked to a lifesaving liver treatment for pernicious anemia nearly 100 ...

Researchers discover that messenger RNA discarded by laboratories is the biological key to preventing essential proteins from ...

AI drug discovery cleared its first Phase IIa clinical test in 2025, as BIO 2026 confirmed the shift from speculation to ...

The chemicals flowing through your bloodstream tell a story that your DNA alone cannot. They reflect what you eat, how your body functions, and even the diseases that may be developing long before ...
