New imaging tools reveal how within an hour of infection, the virus begins to alter our chromosomes to kick-start its own replication.

Fifteen years after the discovery of a new type of human, the Denisovan, scientists discovered its DNA in a fossilized skull.

Using an inexpensive electrode coated with DNA, MIT researchers have designed disposable diagnostics that could be adapted to detect a variety of diseases, including cancer or infectious diseases such ...

Macquarie University researchers have discovered a naturally occurring protein found in human cells plays a powerful role in ...

Scientists have recovered genetic material from a skull found in northeastern China, which they say reveals the most complete ...

Males imprint their DNA by adding methyl modifications to it in a way that alters the activity of genes in order to promote ...

Google's DeepMind launches AlphaGenome, an artificial intelligence model that predicts gene expression from DNA sequence.

UCSF researchers recently created the world's first shape-shifting synthetic proteins using artificial intelligence (AI). The ...

In 2010, scientists found the first evidence of another hominin subspecies, known as the Danisovans. Now, they’ve identified ...

Caffeine appears to affect how cells handle stress and DNA damage—but researchers say it’s no magic bullet. Here’s what the ...

“PDI is like a double agent,” Dr Shadfar explains. “In healthy cells, it repairs DNA and helps prevent disease. But in cancer, it gets hijacked — it ends up protecting the tumour instead of the body.

Now Google’s DeepMind division says it’s made a leap in trying to understand the code with AlphaGenome, an AI model that ...
