The power of artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced computing has made it possible to design genetic sequences encoding ...

Cockayne syndrome (CS) is a rare disease that causes short stature, premature aging (progeria), severe photosensitivity, and moderate to severe learning delay. A new study by researchers from the ...

Researchers explore a basic building block used in the fabrication of many DNA nanoforms. Known as a Holliday junction, this nexus of two segments of double stranded DNA has been used to form ...

In our bodies, there are trillions of cells. From white blood cells to skin cells, each type has its own specific function which helps us perform tasks and survive. But what makes up these cells and ...

For decades, scientists believed that DNA strands under stress would form knots, tangling into chaotic shapes. But new research led by the University of Cambridge shows otherwise: when put under ...

DNA is the molecular basis of heredity, the inherited traits that pass between generations in a person's family tree. Embodied in the sequence of base pairs, DNA carries information between ...
