Scientists are celebrating DNA Day, marking the completion of the human genome project in 2003. The project successfully ...

In a new study published in Nature Communications titled, “The reference genome of the human diploid cell line RPE-1,” researchers from University of Rome La Sapienza have produced the first reference ...

Researchers have developed ThermoCas9, a CRISPR enzyme that can distinguish cancer cells from healthy ones by reading DNA methylation patterns. In lab tests, it selectively edited breast cancer cell ...

A groundbreaking new treatment using genome-edited immune cells, developed by scientists at UCL (University College London) and Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH), has shown promising results in ...

Researchers at Duke University used CRISPR technologies to discover previously unannotated stretches of DNA in the ‘dark genome’ that are responsible for controlling how cells sense and respond to the ...

The MarketWatch News Department was not involved in the creation of this content.-- Precede Bio Insight debuts as a first-of-its-kind product enabling genome-wide inference of gen ...

Most gene-editing tools cut DNA wherever they’re pointed, with no way to tell a tumor cell from a healthy one. A study ...

How does a cell know when it’s been damaged? A molecular alarm, set off by mutated RNA and colliding ribosomes, signals danger. When the sun shines on your skin, what does it hit? When it causes a ...

Germ cells pass DNA to the next generation and undergo massive reorganization of their DNA packaging to generate totipotency, or the ability to differentiate into any cell type. Understanding the ...

Weill Cornell Medicine researchers have found that temporarily disabling a protein complex that organizes DNA into loops ...

Cells are poor storytellers. They live complex, eventful lives — dividing, migrating, responding to their environment. But by the time they reach the laboratory, whatever narrative they once carried ...
