Cross-species research shows that RNA splicing patterns, not just gene activity, track maximum lifespan in mammals, revealing a new axis of longevity control.

In back-to-back studies published in Nature, researchers from Purdue University and Columbia University report a naturally ...

Cells rely on tiny molecules called microRNAs to tune which genes are active and when. Cells must carefully control the ...

Researchers have used artificial intelligence to design thousands of new DNA switches that can precisely control the expression of a gene in different cell types. Their new approach opens the ...

Researchers have built a series of CRISPR-based platforms that can switch endogenous genes on and, just as critically, dial ...

Scientists have created tiny living robots endowed with functional nervous systems, marking a major ...

Stepping away from its billions-of-years-old role as a genetic blueprint, DNA is now embarking on a new journey as an active ...

Scientists used a bacterial system called retron to turn DNA into a programmable tool inside living cells, enabling gene ...

A key cancer-fighting gene in leukemia is switched off—not broken—and scientists from The Jackson Laboratory (JAX) have found ...

The brain may lose control over which genes get expressed as it ages.

Within the evolving landscape of peptide science, Thymosin Alpha-1 occupies a distinctive conceptual position. First characterized decades ago as a thymus-associated peptide fragment, it has since bee ...
