It's tricky to make an exact copy of yourself. Or at least it is for cells undergoing mitosis, where cells replicate ...

PlantGFM created synthetic plant DNA that tobacco cells copied into RNA, with some sequences producing detectable proteins in ...

In human cells, there are about 20,000 genes on a two-meter DNA strand—finely coiled up in a nucleus about 10 micrometers in diameter. By comparison, this corresponds to a 40-kilometer thread packed ...

A study published in the journal Cell marks the first reported instance of generative AI designing synthetic molecules that can successfully control gene expression in healthy mammalian cells.

Every cell in a body contains the same genetic sequence, yet each cell expresses only a subset of those genes. These cell-specific gene expression patterns, which ensure that a brain cell is different ...

Scientists have elucidated the molecular mechanism by which LEM-3 cuts DNA bridges during cytokinesis. If DNA bridges persist between chromosomes during cell division, chromosomes are abnormally ...
