A team from University of Toronto Engineering is the first to synthesize long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) outside the cell—a new approach to drug discovery that has already yielded some promising ...

As climate pressure mounts, new platforms tackle delivery, regulation, trait stacking, and data bottlenecks limiting agricultural genome editing.

Scientists developed Evo 2, a large biological foundation model trained on about 9 trillion DNA base pairs that can analyse ...

Loss of the Y chromosome in aging men is widespread and increasingly linked to serious diseases, challenging assumptions that ...

Researchers screened more than 220,000 single-letter DNA changes, identifying thousands that regulate gene activity in brain, ...

Rapidly testing hundreds of thousands of DNA sequences, scientists identified specific genetic variations contributing to blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar.

A massive genomics effort has identified thousands of single nucleotide non-coding variants, which alter gene activity, that link to disease and health.

Scientists have identified how specific genetic changes function in cells to influence disease risk and other human health ...

Scientists have identified how specific genetic changes function in cells to influence disease risk and other human health traits. By probing regions ...

Background Balanced translocation (BT) carriers have a high risk of recurrent miscarriage and abnormal offspring due to unbalanced gamete production. Clinical genetic testing often fails to detect BTs ...

Researchers have revealed that so-called ‘junk DNA’ contains powerful switches that help control brain cells linked to Alzheimer’s disease. When people picture DNA, they often imagine a set of genes ...
