Yale researchers have created "Ochre," a genomically recoded organism that enables the production of synthetic proteins with ...

This week at AAAS, PNNL scientists and colleagues discuss phenomics, exposomics, and the factors that influence DNA ...

UMD researchers have discovered key mechanisms in gene regulation that could improve the design of RNA-based medicines.

As climate change accelerates, plants face mounting pressure to adapt to shifting ecosystems and environmental conditions.

Understanding how plants adapt to different environments is crucial for addressing climate change. A new study by the groups of Liam Dolan and Frédéric Berger at the Gregor Mendel Institute (GMI) of ...

Synthetic biologists from Yale were able to re-write the genetic code of an organism - a novel genomically recoded organism (GRO) with one stop codon - using a cellular platform that they developed ...

Evolution is traditionally associated with a process of increasing complexity and gaining new genes. However, the explosion of the genomic era shows that gene loss and simplification is a much more ...

A complex molecular machine, the spliceosome, ensures that the genetic information from the genome, after being transcribed into mRNA precursors, is correctly assembled into mature mRNA. Splicing is a ...
