Whether you’re looking to learn more about your health traits or dig deep into your familiar roots, having a DNA test done can help you learn a lot about yourself. The good thing is, these tests ...

Genetic modification in horticultural crops, particularly within the Cucurbitaceae family, is often hindered by complex ...

At Princeton University, scientists have been nudging DNA by using light-inducible biomolecular condensates to generate capillary forces at targeted DNA loci. These condensates are part of a platform ...

Figure 1: Expression of reporter gene constructs derived from the gcy-5, lim-6 and lsy-6 genes. One potential explanation for our observations is that the vector backbone may dictate the packaging ...

The best way to go about this is with DNA testing kits. These help you learn more about your genetic makeup. The best genetic kits are from Ancestry and 23andMe. The latter was the first to offer ...

The Plague May Have Caused the Downfall of the Stone Age Farmers July 10, 2024 — Ancient DNA from bones and teeth hints at a role of the plague in Stone Age population collapse. Contrary to ...

Advancements in cell and gene therapy have been driven by improved insights into the human immune system and a better ...

A new study finds that mitochondria in our brain cells frequently fling their DNA into the cells' nucleus, where the mitochondrial DNA integrates into chromosomes, possibly causing harm.

A team of experts has proposed storing the DNA of threatened animals in a vault on the lunar surface – Earth's only natural satellite – where conditions are cold enough to preserve the samples.

VGXI, Inc., a leading provider of plasmid DNA manufacturing and development services, is proud to announce its participation in the upcoming Alliance for Regenerative Medicine Annual Meeting on the ...

Co-expressing NPY and its inhibitory receptor Y2 in excitatory hippocampal cells allows inhibitory autoregulation of ...

As direct descendants of ancient bacteria, mitochondria have always been a little alien. Now a study shows that mitochondria are possibly even stranger than we thought. The study, titled "Somatic ...
