The Age of AI will rely on massive volumes of data that can be easily stored and retrieved—and bioscience may have an ingenious solution.

In a remarkable fusion of biology and technology, a DNA-based computer that performs effectively has been created by ...

DNA data storage is a big deal. Partly, it's because we're based on DNA, and any research into manipulation of that molecule will pay dividends for medicine and biology in general -- but in part, it's ...

Shakespeare’s entire catalog of sonnets and eight of his tragedies, all of Wikipedia’s English-language pages, and one of the first movies ever made: scientists have been able to fit the contents of ...

Before a cell divides, its DNA is replicated so that each daughter cell inherits the same genetic information. The two copies ...

The Pol-theta enzyme (blue) joins two parts of a broken DNA strand (yellow). This process is mutagenic and can give rise to cancer. LA JOLLA, CA—DNA repair proteins act like the body’s editors, ...

Aging, neurological diseases and our bodies' stress response are all linked to the tiny power plants inside each cell known ...

Biology lectures teach students that when a cell’s replication machinery comes together, DNA polymerase takes off down the double-helix like a car on a highway ...

Alphabet Inc.’s Google DeepMind today introduced AlphaGenome, a new artificial intelligence tool that can comprehensively predict how mutations or variants in human DNA sequences impact gene ...

For decades, scientists thought the noncoding parts of DNA were useless leftovers. Today, that view has completely changed.

Bacteria have long been a key source of lifesaving antibiotics, but most species cannot be grown in the lab—leaving their ...
