The researchers also found that DNA molecules do not all pair with the same strength. Some DNA sequences form much stronger ...

A new genome-editing method, prime assembly, precisely inserts long DNA sequences into targeted genomic locations.

Genomic editing holds great potential yet continues to have limitations. Current methods either rely on untargeted gene ...

Childhood cancer survivors often experience late adverse effects that may be linked to chemotherapy mutagenesis. We studied ...

Scientists expected SuperAgers might simply inherit fewer Alzheimer’s-related risks, but their genes looked much like those of typical older adults. Their extraordinary memories may instead come from ...

COLUMBUS, Ohio — A Cleveland man who wants DNA testing to challenge his conviction lost a key round Tuesday, when the Ohio Supreme Court ruled 6-1 that judges don’t have to give detailed reasons when ...

The prostate is the single organ most frequently afflicted by cancer in men. Prostate cancer affects approximately 4 million American men, with another 330,000 men expected to be diagnosed with the ...

A tiny set of ancient genetic “switches” may have played a surprisingly large role in making human language possible. Researchers found that these DNA regions, which act like volume controls for genes ...

Definition: A microarray is a small, flat substrate carrying an ordered grid of microscopic probe features, each containing a known biological molecule, that is used to measure many molecular targets ...

When we think about genetic inheritance, we usually leap to DNA, the four-letter code containing the instructions for building a living organism. Scientists know that DNA encodes everything from hair ...
