A protein tied to ALS and dementia may have a much bigger role in disease than scientists realized. Researchers found that ...

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

But when Nelly’s DNA was sent to Embark Dog DNA for testing, the results came back with a surprising answer: 100 percent ...

Most lethal mutations in wild fruit flies are driven by newly transferred jumping genes, not small DNA errors, according to a ...

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 ...

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

Drug delivery researchers have vastly improved the potential of genetic therapies by overcoming the challenge of consistently getting genes and gene-editing tools where they need to be within cells.

Researchers uncovered millions of ancient plant DNA switches—some older than flowering plants themselves—revealing a hidden evolutionary blueprint stretching back 400 million years. Most people have ...

Genome editing-based therapies typically aim to treat disease by correcting underlying genetic mutations in patient’s cells. However, most genetic disorders are caused by dozens or even thousands of ...

A new method for safely inserting large chunks of DNA into genomes has now measured up in mice, potentially paving the way ...

A DNA test could help match patients with psychiatric medications, potentially reducing the long and frustrating ...

Researchers use long-read genome sequencing to discover 33% more structural variants and 38% more tandem repeats linked to autism spectrum disorder.
