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 ...

Tunable DNA hairpin springs stretch millions of protein copies under piconewton tension, enabling bulk biochemical discovery of binding partners invisible to single-molecule techniques.

More than 60 years after its discovery, scientists are still learning surprising ways DNA stores and translates instructions ...

Washington: Researchers at Houston Methodist have discovered that a protein tied to neurodegenerative conditions such as dementia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) also helps control a critical ...

Researchers at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have built a molecular "leash" to pull directly on a force-sensing ...

A new single‑cell method, CIPHER‑seq, measures RNA and proteins together to reveal real‑time cytokine signaling.

Kolkata: Scientists from the Zoological Survey of India (ZSI) have identified a new species of cockroach, Neoloboptera peninsularis, from farmlands in Nathachiwadi, Daund, Pune. The discovery utilized ...

Drug delivery researchers have vastly improved the potential of genetic therapies by overcoming the challenge of consistently getting genes and gene-editing tools where they need to be within cells.

Livestock breeders could soon have more tools to improve the health and quality of their animals, thanks to a recent study that sheds new light on regulatory elements in the sheep genome. Previous ...

Study finds that the mass extinction caused by an asteroid about 66 million years ago led to critical changes in bird genomes that ultimately sparked the incredibly diversity living birds. Shortly ...
