Every molecular biologist knows the ritual. A plate of cloned sequences comes back from the Sanger sequencing facility, and ...

Before any tiger was released into the lower Ili river delta in southeastern Kazakhstan, 205 Bukhara deer had to be put there ...

Researchers have taken a significant step toward what they call a “Raman genome” — a spectroscopic fingerprint of viral RNA ...

Variants in genes involved in the production of extracellular matrix molecules could have enabled the skeletal adaptations that distinguish humans from other great apes.

One of the strongest signals, albeit weaker than the original GWAS findings two decades ago, highlighted a novel regulatory ...

AlphaGenome Atlas, Google DeepMind's new 1-petabyte genomics database, pre-computes predicted molecular effects for all 9 billion possible single-letter DNA changes in the human genome. The ...

The human genome is an easy place to get lost. Only 2% of its three billion letters encode proteins, and the rest is diabolically hard to decipher. An artificial-intelligence-generated ‘atlas’ of the ...

Google DeepMind has published predicted effects for roughly 9 billion single-letter DNA changes. Based on a rare-disease cell ...

CRISPR is often described as an immune system that bacteria independently developed to fight viruses. However, the origin of this 'immunity' itself has long been shrouded in mystery. The core protein ...

Last time, we organized information about the FASTQ files output by sequencers.FASTQ files record the base sequence and ...

Many animals benefit from microbial symbionts that aid digestion, supply essential nutrients, or provide defense. When this ...

To develop gene therapy tools based on CRISPR-associated transposons (CASTs), it is essential to define how transposon ends are recognized and paired during transposition. Transposon 7 (Tn7)–like ...
