Smallest archaeal genome ever recorded: Sukunaarchaeum mirabile, found in Pacific Ocean plankton, encodes only 189 proteins -- fewer than many viruses -- but retains its own ribosomes, qualifying it ...

Here's a look at past winners of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.

A new bioinformatic study in Reproductive Sciences shows that a risk model built from telomere-related senescence genes can ...

The ATR–ATRIP kinase complex safeguards genome integrity by coordinating cellular responses to DNA damage and replication stress. Two recent cryo-EM studies resolve the structural basis of ATR–ATRIP ...

DNA can be more than just a double helix. When four strands are folded into a compact bundle, they form a G-quadruplex (G4).

Repetitive sequences make extrachromosomal DNA vulnerable to breaks, which could be exploited for therapy — but might also promote tumour evolution.

I have completed a master's degree in a science-related graduate school and work as a researcher at a manufacturing company.

"What am I?"Ourselves in the mirror. There is no one who was not once a fertilized egg.* How does the "human body" look from the perspective of AI?From the perspective of A.I. (Large Language Models), ...

When cells adapt to new challenges, they often do so by reshuffling their genomes on a grand scale. A new study published in ...

CHICAGO, IL / ACCESS Newswire / September 29, 2026 / Recent research examining the effects of Epitalon peptide on telomere-maintenance mechanisms has renewed attention to the peptide as scientists ...
