A group of scientists has sequenced the genome of a man who was buried in Egypt around 4,500 years ago. The study offers rare ...

Scientists sought to work out genetic errors by creating their own artificial genome, which replaced E. coli’s original genome and used less genetic material.

The team studied Rhodotorula toruloides, a red yeast used to produce substances called oleochemicals. Scientists use a ...

Each cell has their own genetic code that helps maintain viability and directs function. This genetic code is commonly referred to as deoxyribonucleic acid or DNA. DNA is the molecule that carries ...

The synthetic bacteria contain a shorter genetic code with 57 codons rather than 64, freeing up space for further edits that might lead to new drugs or virus-resistant microbes ...

The new system developed by Professor Chad Mirkin delivers CRISPR machinery more safely and effectively into cells.

LAHORE: A Pakistani researcher working at Algoma University in Canada has contributed to a major international study that uncovers new layers of complexity in the human genetic code and protein ...

Scientists says they've mapped the DNA sequences of avocado - meaning future fruit can be modified to survive climate change. Once scientists say they've cracked the genetic code of avocado, they ...
