DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave.

Restricted access to genome-editing technologies poses serious challenges for countries like India that urgently need such tools for food security and agriculture. In what ways does indigenous gene ...

Researchers have revealed that so-called ‘junk DNA’ contains powerful switches that help control brain cells linked to Alzheimer’s disease. When people picture DNA, they often imagine a set of genes ...

The authors attempt to use sequencing of nascent DNA (DNA linked to an RNA primer, "SNS-Seq") to localise DNA replication origins in Trypanosoma brucei, but they analyse the results for only part of ...

In RNA molecules, the 5′ untranslated region (UTR) is located directly upstream of the start codon and plays a crucial role in post-transcriptional regulation by controlling RNA stability, cellular ...

This valuable study revisits the effects of substitution model selection on phylogenetics by comparing reversible and non-reversible DNA substitution models. The authors provide solid evidence that 1) ...

The non-coding genome, once dismissed as "junk DNA", is now recognized as a fundamental regulator of gene expression and a key player in understanding complex diseases. Following the landmark ...

Endometriosis is highly underdiagnosed and undertreated gynecological disorder, with diagnosis often delayed by 8–12 years. This delay can have serious consequences including infertility. Currently, ...

Our DNA to RNA Converter is a specialized tool designed to streamline the transformation of genetic data for students and researchers. It functions by automating two core biological processes: ...

Vast swathes of the human genome remain a mystery to science. A new AI from Google DeepMind is helping researchers understand how these stretches of DNA impact the activity of other genes. While the ...
