Across all domains of life, immune defenses foil invading viruses by making it impossible for the viruses to replicate. Most known CRISPR systems target invading pathogens' DNA and chop it up to ...

AlphaFold arrived as a technical moonshot that suddenly made protein structures feel like software rather than secrets of nature, and five years on it has rewired how laboratories plan experiments, ...

A UCLA-led study has provided an unprecedented look at how gene regulation evolves during human brain development, showing how the 3D structure of chromatin - DNA and proteins - plays a critical role.

DNA repair proteins act like the body's editors, constantly finding and reversing damage to our genetic code. Researchers have long struggled to understand how cancer cells hijack one of these ...

DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave.

Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have performed a comprehensive evaluation of five artificial intelligence (AI) models trained on genomic sequences, known as DNA ...

Pranam Chatterjee, PhD, assistant professor of bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn), emphasizes that text is all you need for artificial intelligence (AI) models to effectively ...

AI can now create genome viruses in laboratories and redesign toxins to evade controls, raising biosafety alert and rise of ...

Professor Jonathan Wittenberg used this model of sperm whale myoglobin structure as a teaching tool at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine at Yeshiva University in the Bronx. It was used beginning ...
