A comprehensive encyclopedia of the known functions of all protein-coding human genes has just been completed and released. Researchers used large-scale evolutionary modeling to integrate data on ...
Google DeepMind announced it was making AlphaGenome’s source code and weights available to the science community for ...
Octopuses break so many biological expectations that scientists still struggle to explain how they ended up this way through ...
Genes contain instructions for making proteins, and a central dogma of biology is that this information flows from DNA to RNA to proteins. But only two percent of the human genome actually encodes ...
Understanding human gene function in living organisms has long been hampered by fundamental differences between species.
On Monday, the Nobel Committee announced that two US researchers, Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun, will receive the prize in Physiology or Medicine for their discovery of a previously unknown mechanism ...
An international collaboration between four senior scientists from Mainz, Valencia, Madrid, and Zurich has published groundbreaking research in the journal PNAS, shedding light on the most significant ...
For millennia, evolution has intrigued many great thinkers, prompting questions about how new traits emerge as species adapt over time. Then, attention shifted to natural selection and the inheritance ...
Non-protein-coding genes have been linked to a hereditary condition, retinitis pigmentosa, that causes progressive blindness.
