MIT researchers have built an AI language model that learns the internal coding patterns of a yeast species widely used to ...

A RAND study found that the newest AI models can design lab-ready DNA sequences and generate workable protocols, successfully ...

Decades of research has viewed DNA as a sequence-based instruction manual; yet every cell in the body shares the same genes – so where is the language that writes the memory of cell identities?

For decades, scientists have been puzzled by large portions of the human genome labeled as “junk” DNA, sequences that seemingly serve no purpose. Yet, recent studies suggest these cryptic sequences ...

The non-coding genome, once dismissed as "junk DNA", is now recognized as a fundamental regulator of gene expression and a key player in understanding complex diseases. Following the landmark ...

This week's cover of the international journal 'Nature' features an image of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) being decoded. 98% of DNA consists of 'non-coding regions' that are not directly involved in pr ...

Every living organism has its own genetic "blueprint": the source code for how it grows, functions and reproduces. This ...
