A new study reveals that certain locations of DNA are copied faster than others, which could also have an effect on mutation rate. Cell division is fundamental for life, allowing organisms to grow, ...

DNA’s elegant double helix isn’t just beautiful—it’s a masterclass in precision engineering. From base pairing to semi-conservative replication, every step ensures life’s blueprint is copied ...

R-loops are structures that form when a strand of RNA (red) forms a stable structure with double-stranded DNA, causing one strand of the DNA to form a loop. R-loops are associated with gene ...

Scientists from Skoltech and the University of Potsdam have developed a physical theory that sheds light on how molecular ...

To better understand BKPyV replication and ways to prevent it, researchers in the UAB Department of Microbiology have published a single-cell analysis of BKPyV infection in primary kidney cells. Their ...

A wave of AI foundation models built on plant DNA sequences is giving researchers new tools to annotate genomes, predict gene function, and measure crop traits faster than traditional methods allow.

A machine learning model analyzing CpG-based DNA methylation accurately predicted the origin of many different cancer types ...
