Scientists are exploring how DNA’s physical structure can store vast amounts of data and encode secure information.

Some genetic mutations that are expected to completely stop a gene from working surprisingly cause only mild or even no symptoms. Researchers in previous studies have discovered one reason why: cells ...

DNA from 3,700-year-old bones in a mountain cave in Calabria reveals a family relationship so rare it stands out even in deep ...

New research shows that after the body's defenses kill the virus behind COVID-19, leftover digested chunks of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein can target specific immune cells based on their shape. The ...

In a way, sequencing DNA is very simple: There's a molecule, you look at it, and you write down what you find. You'd think it would be easy—and, for any one letter in the sequence, it is. The problem ...

A UCLA-led international research team showed that fragments of digested proteins from the virus behind COVID-19 can attack certain immune cells that have spiky shapes, such as the T cell above. New ...

Over the past two decades, researchers have learned that DNA inside the cell nucleus naturally folds into a network of ...

When it comes to cancer, waiting for symptoms may soon be old news. Telehealth company Hims & Hers began offering a blood ...

A UCLA-led international research team showed that fragments of digested proteins from the virus behind COVID-19 can attack certain immune cells that have spiky shapes, such as the T cell above.

“There are no shortcuts,” says Maynard James Keenan, one-third of the slippery, enigmatic,experimental rock project Puscifer. “You have to wax-on/wax-off and be frustrated with wax-on/wax-off, while ...
