DNA phosphorothioate modification is a distinctive epigenetic alteration in which a non‐bridging oxygen atom within the DNA sugar-phosphate backbone is replaced by ...

DENVER, Jan. 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CRISPR gene-editing, and related genome engineering technologies, are reshaping industries from medicine to materials, with breakthroughs in treating genetic ...

A new study has created a map of DNA modification in two regions of the brain critical to learning, memory and emotional regulation. The map offers a benchmark for ensuring stem cell-based models ...

The Human Genome Project changed everything. A map of the entire human sequence of DNA was the starting point for an enormous number of discoveries, from disease genes to how humans evolved. But DNA ...

Humans love to play with their food—in fact, we’ve been doing it for thousands of years. In this episode of Crash Course Botany, we explore how we’ve learned to manipulate plant genetics, from ...

A UCLA-led study has provided an unprecedented look at how gene regulation evolves during human brain development, showing how the 3D structure of chromatin - DNA and proteins - plays a critical role.

The brains at Google DeepMind in London have developed a new artificial intelligence (AI) tool that can accurately predict ...

An animal geneticist at the University of California-Davis told Kansas cattle producers recently that a gene editing technique more common in plant genetics is also a safe option for shortening the ...

Researchers in Basel have created SEED/Harvest, a new CRISPR-based technique that tags proteins without leaving any genetic “scars.” By blending two powerful methods, it allows scientists to study ...

Plant scientists have used a standard "gene gun" since 1988 to genetically modify crops for better yield, nutrition, pest resistance and other valuable traits. Subscribe to our newsletter for the ...
