Scientists have identified how specific genetic changes function in cells to influence disease risk and other human health ...

A massive genomics effort has identified thousands of single nucleotide non-coding variants, which alter gene activity, that link to disease and health.

Rapidly testing hundreds of thousands of DNA sequences, scientists identified specific genetic variations contributing to blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar.

Why cells grow to just the right size has long baffled scientists. Too small or too large, and cells can trigger serious diseases, but the genetic switch behind this balance has remained elusive. Now, ...

A recent study marks the first reported instance of generative AI designing synthetic molecules that can successfully control gene expression in healthy mammalian cells. As a proof-of-concept, the ...

The last common ancestor of all living things did not just suddenly appear on Earth roughly 4.2 billion years ago. Some of ...

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) are a type of RNA molecule that do not carry instructions to make proteins. Instead, they influence how other genes are expressed. There are tens of thousands of lncRNAs ...
