Most of the Y chromosome (Ychr) region (approximately 95%) passes unchanged from father to son, except by the gradual accumulation of single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) mutations. This results in ...

A new international study suggests that ancient viral DNA embedded in our genome, which were long dismissed as genetic "junk, ...

This makes it far easier to perform this type of assembly in real life, because you’d need to generate a much smaller set of ...

Abstract Summary Pharmacological enhancement of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteostasis is an attractive strategy to mitigate pathology linked to etiologically-diverse protein misfolding diseases.

Epigenome and transcriptome study of moringa isothiocyanate in mouse kidney mesangial cells induced by high glucose, a potential model for diabetic-induced nephropathy.

The nucleosome core particle (NCP) is a large complex of 145–147 base pairs of DNA and eight histone proteins and is the basic building block of chromatin that forms the chromosomes. Here, we develop ...

Genetic testing company 23andMe never hit on a sustainable business model and went bankrupt. Now, it's being sold to a non-profit launched by the co-founder, delaying addressing data privacy concerns.

A Gundam GQuuuuuuX Endymion Unit Awakened based on the gunpla's appearance in the final episode of the anime is being made.

AlphaGenome scores mutation effects across coding and non-coding DNA, bringing gene insights to the base-pair level.
