What can knowing the sequence of all the DNA in pigs tell us about human diseases? Plenty, says Lawrence Schook. He heads an international consortium to sequence the pig genome that is announcing its ...

A new study presents “Evo” – a machine learning model capable of decoding and designing DNA, RNA, and protein sequences, from molecular to genome scale, with unparalleled accuracy. Evo’s ability to ...

For decades, biologists treated DNA as a static string of letters, a linear code that cells read like text on a page. A new ...

DNA digital storage (DDS) involves encoding information into nucleotide sequences, synthesizing DNA molecules, and storing them accordingly. Solid-phase synthesis using phosphoramidite-based chemical ...

REYKJAVIK, Iceland, July 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- A new study by scientists at deCODE Genetics, subsidiary of Amgen, shows that sequence variants drive the correlation between DNA methylation and gene ...

All the cells in an organism have the exact same genetic sequence. What differs across cell types is their epigenetics-meticulously placed chemical tags that influence which genes are expressed in ...

NEW YORK (AP) -- An Abyssinian cat from Missouri, named Cinnamon, has just made scientific history. Researchers have largely decoded her DNA, a step that may aid the search for treatments for both ...

Every cell in the body has the same DNA, but different cell types—such as muscle or brain cells—use different parts of it. Transcription factors help cells activate specific genes by reading certain ...
