Researchers at the Weill Institute for Cell and Molecular Biology have uncovered new evidence that two major types of gene-controlling DNA sequences, promoters and enhancers, operate with a shared ...

DNA is the blueprint of life. Genes encode proteins and serve as the body's basic components. However, building a functioning ...

A fleeting DNA fold called i‑DNA can switch cancer‑related genes on and off, revealing a hidden structural weak point that ...

Researchers developed e2MPRA, a high-throughput technique that simultaneously measures cis-regulatory element activity and ...

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

In a spectacular bit of science, a group of scientists has sequenced the DNA from the femur of a man who died 45,000 years ago. The femur they studied is over 20 times older than this 2000 year old ...

A study published in the journal Science reveals how jumping fragments of human DNA, a type of genetic parasite, destabilize the cancer genome. Unstable genomes are a fertile playground for cancer ...
