A study has traced thousands of conserved regulatory elements back 300 million years, revealing deep principles of plant ...

Scientists have uncovered an enormous hidden archive of plant DNA that has endured for more than 400 million years. By comparing hundreds of plant genomes, researchers identified more than 2.3 million ...

An international team of researchers has taken an important step toward understanding how gene expression is controlled across the human genome. The research is published in the journal Nature. The ...

Genome editing-based therapies typically aim to treat disease by correcting underlying genetic mutations in patient's cells.

Decades of research has viewed DNA as a sequence-based instruction manual; yet every cell in the body shares the same genes – so where is the language that writes the memory of cell identities?

Element Biosciences created a high-throughput benchtop device that can deliver a whole genome for $100 – half the price of ...

Epigenetics is the study of various heritable alterations that control gene expression without changing the DNA sequence. 1 The name epigenetics comes from the Greek prefix “epi”, which means on top ...

Scientists announced DNA storage devices capable of rewriting, erasing, and storing data for centuries ...

Researchers at the University of California San Diego have identified new genetic variants associated with autism spectrum ...
