genes that perform certain functions in lower animals have been maintained even in the human DNA script, though sometimes the genes have been modified for more complex functions. This thread of ...

Chances are you've seen an illustration of DNA's double-helix structure and even pictures of the chromosomes that comprise the human genome. But where and how does the famous double helix fit into ...

Ancient human genomes reconstructed from remains at a southern African rock shelter show remarkable genetic continuity over ...

A UCLA-led study has created a map of DNA modification in two regions of the brain critical to learning, memory and emotional ...

Scientists are now exploring how 5D memory crystals, which are made from quartz glass and can endure extreme temperatures up to 1000 °C, cosmic radiation and most chemicals, could be used to preserve ...

The USP50 protein plays a key role in regulating the balance between nuclease and helicase activity during essential cellular ...

This chart reflects the supervisory reporting relationships from the Oracle Human Resources System. Changes to the hierarchies can be made to direct reports through the Oracle Manager Self Service ...

A critical transition in early human development is regulated not by our own genes, but by DNA elements called transposons ...

CRISPR places an entirely new kind of power into human hands. For the first time, scientists can quickly and precisely alter, delete, and rearrange the DNA of nearly any living organism ...

Results suggest novel roles for LINE1 transposable elements that can be explored in the contexts of diseases, from ...

Biophysical chemists from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have uncovered a previously hidden landscape that governs the intracellular organization and dynamics of SWI/SNF chromatin ...

Following the success of Humulin, recombinant DNA technology was quickly adopted to replace older methods of producing medical products from human growth hormone to vaccines. Although scientists have ...
