A genome search and protein language model produced new DNA-moving proteins, including one that doubled targeted insertion in ...

The DNA in our cells wraps around proteins called histones to form nucleosomes, which organize into chromatin. This ...

Immune cells are the elite athletes of the human body. While other cells stay in place, immune cells travel throughout our bodies, squeezing through small channels, stretching themselves, sampling the ...

A new engineered gene-editing system, proven in bacteria and showing promise for use in plants, animals and humans, addresses ...

Researchers are exploring how DNA–protein hydrogels can turn molecular information into mechanical and functional properties ...

For decades, biology has been organized around a deceptively simple idea: DNA is transcribed into RNA, RNA is translated into ...

Determining protein structures requires crystals, but getting proteins to crystallize has long depended on a slow, unpredictable process of trial and error ...

A protein tied to ALS and dementia may have a much bigger role in disease than scientists realized. Researchers found that TDP43 controls a key DNA repair process, but when the protein becomes ...

A large-scale computational study finds that protein misfolding may underlie a substantial share of hereditary hearing loss, ...
