In cancer research, one person's junk is increasingly becoming another person's treasure. Scientists have now uncovered new evidence showing how recently evolved "junk DNA" genetic elements can become ...

In the study of bacteria, a longstanding dogma has held that two molecular machines—RNA polymerase, which leads the way in transcribing DNA into RNA, and ribosomes, which bring up the rear translating ...

Accurate RNA splicing is essential for gene expression and human health, yet predicting how DNA sequence variations affect ...

Different sedentary behavior patterns are associated with different cancer outcomes, with prolonged stretches—but not ...

Discover how eating a high-quality diet with low inflammatory potential is associated with a reduced risk of developing ...

A prototype cell partly capable of replicating itself has been created using 36 existing bacterial genes, but it's not really ...

Minimally disruptive genetic code expansion enables faithful, site-specific labeling of G3BP1 and TDP-43, revealing native stress granule dynamics and ALS-linked protein behavior in live cells.

AbstractNon apoptotic cell death programs particularly ferroptosis and cuproptosis are transforming how we understand cancer ...
