Industrial yeasts are a powerhouse of protein production, used to manufacture vaccines, biopharmaceuticals, and other useful compounds. In a new study, MIT chemical engineers have harnessed artificial ...

Researchers develop a single genome-editing strategy to treat multiple disorders caused by nonsense mutations, promising efficient and cost-effective therapies.

A new study by researchers at Kiel University and MPI-EvolBio describes how more efficient protein production drives the ...

MIT’s AI system boosts precision protein drug production, cutting development costs by learning the “language” of genetic sequences.

Psychiatric disorders can share common genetic influences, which means parts of DNA can be at the root of more than one mental condition, new research has found. The study, led by researchers at Texas ...

A new deep-learning AI model may help scientists better decipher the plot of the genetic instruction book and learn how typos alter the story. AlphaGenome, created by Google DeepMind, is the latest in ...

Alzheimer’s may be driven far more by genetics than previously thought, with one gene playing an outsized role. Researchers found that up to nine in ten cases could be linked to the APOE gene — even ...
