Scientists have developed an experimental “DNA cassette tape” to address the global data storage crisis. This new technology ...

A traditional cassette tape holds roughly 10 to 12 songs on each side, but 328 feet of this DNA cassette tape could hold the ...

A new study shows that repetitive DNA, once dismissed as “junk,” plays a critical role in shaping the human brain.

Non-coding DNA variants contribute to acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) chemotherapy resistance. St. Jude Children's Research Hospital scientists have identified specific DNA variants in the ...

Researchers believe that's partly down to the spider's 'dark DNA' - a mysterious part of the animal's genetic code, and they ...

There are some genes that can promote cancer; they are sometimes called oncogenes, and in tumor cells, mutations are often found in these genes. When they are functioning normally, oncogenes are often ...

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

It's not easy eating green. Most plants are heavily defended with chemicals to deter plant eaters. For these herbivores, ...

Scientists have found that non-coding 'junk' DNA, far from being harmless and inert, could potentially contribute to the development of cancer. Their study has shown how non-coding DNA can get in the ...

At the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, scientists created a new way to tell someone’s age using just a bit of DNA. This ...
