Here's what we know about the South Florida DNA lab chosen over Quantico to analyze evidence in the Nancy Guthrie abduction.

DNA origami sounds like science fiction, but for HIV vaccine researchers it is becoming a practical design tool. By folding strands of DNA into tiny three-dimensional scaffolds, scientists can arrange ...

Scientists developed a light-responsive artificial nucleic acid that enables reversible, controllable crosslinking within DNA, opening doors for nanomedicine, DNA nanotechnologies and drug delivery.

DNA, the blueprint of life, is best known for its fundamental role as genetic material—storing and transmitting biological information through the precise sequence of its bases. For decades, this ...

Researchers at McGill University and the United States Forest Service have found that plants living in areas where human activity has caused population crashes carry long-lasting genetic traces of ...

Scientists have uncovered new DNA-binding proteins from some of the most extreme environments on Earth and shown that they can improve rapid medical tests for infectious diseases.

A new genetic study examines an unusually large hybridization event that followed the Fukushima nuclear accident, when ...

Hybridization between domestic animals and wildlife is a growing concern worldwide, particularly as feral pigs and wild boar ...

A new study led by researchers at Moffitt Cancer Center found that blood-based DNA markers known as protein epiScores can help predict which colorectal cancer patients face a higher risk of cancer ...

Varanasi: A recent DNA study on Himalayan populations reveals the strongest genetic ties with Tibet and Siberia, while links to China are relatively weaker, said Rakesh Tamang, a Himalayan gene expert ...

The study, published in Thursday's online edition of Journal of Clinical Oncology, found that by tailoring a multi-drug treatment to each patient's specific tumor mutations, doctors can greatly ...
