Scientists engineered stem cells with “interrupted” CAG repeats to break up the toxic stretch. This may stop expansion, and could improve problems in cells that model Huntington’s disease. This study ...

It's a common storytelling trope: the stubborn foe who is eventually revealed to be a much-needed friend. Biology has its own version. Cornell researchers have discovered that DNA packaging structures ...

Colossal Biosciences is pulling one final surprise out of its hat in 2025. Announced today, the company’s nonprofit arm—The Colossal Foundation—secured an additional $50 million in funding, doubling ...

The genetic code is the recipe for life, and provides the instructions for how to make proteins, generally using just 20 amino acids. But certain groups of microbes have an expanded genetic code, in ...

There are few hard and fast rules in the study of life, but perhaps the closest we get is the central dogma of molecular biology: DNA is transcribed to RNA, which gets translated into proteins. The ...

This week, the world of genetics is buzzing with new findings. From tracing our ancient past through DNA to understanding how tiny microbes shape our planet, there’s a lot to talk about. We’re seeing ...

Scientists from the University of Sheffield have uncovered how to potentially control harmful insect populations by studying a "selfish gene" that manipulates inheritance The new research focuses on ...
