RNA-binding proteins use a dual binding mechanism involving zinc finger (ZnF) domains and intrinsically disordered regions ...

Unexpected slowdowns or spikes in this signal were often interpreted as knots in DNA. But now, a new study published Aug. 12 ...

Researchers at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln have played a pivotal role in an international study that has uncovered a ...

As we age, our cells replicate, and the DNA in these cells can acquire mistakes—or mutations—every time the sequence is copied. Most newly acquired mutations are harmless, but some can tip the balance ...

Denisovan-derived DNA shaped Indigenous American ancestry, helping early peoples adapt to new environments, foods, and ...

Using DNA as smart LEGO bricks, scientists are building the next generation of tiny tech that could change computing, ...

The animation studio Fortiche reveals its winning formula for adapting game characters and worlds to the screen.

A decade ago, Karen Lloyd discovered single-celled microbes living beneath the seafloor. Now she studies how they can survive ...

The non-coding genome, once dismissed as "junk DNA", is now recognized as a fundamental regulator of gene expression and a ...

A Denisovan version of a gene variant called MUC19 made its way into some human populations, who then settled the Americas.
