All living things have a blueprint provided by the DNA that is stored in every one of their cells. Yet the amount of DNA in ...

Viral genomes are differentiated from other replicons and genetic material, such as viroids or plasmids, through a unique three-part strategy for survival that is common to all viruses.

In a recent paper published in the journal Genome Research, experts described the chromatin arrangement in the genomes of two ...

We were looking for another system and discovered if we just used an artificial yeast centromere we could convert bacterial genomes into yeast chromosomes. Work led by Gwyn Benders allows us to ...

Rather than training the algorithm on content scraped from the internet, scientists trained the AI on nearly three million ...
