A new study finds that at least one Archaea has surprisingly flexibility when interpreting genetic code, which goes against a ...

Scientists have discovered a microbe that bends the rules of the genetic code. This organism, Methanosarcina acetivorans, uses a flexible translation process. One codon, UAG, traditionally a stop ...

The beauty of the DNA code is that organisms interpret it unambiguously. Each three-letter nucleotide sequence, or codon, in a gene codes for a unique amino acid that's added to a chain of amino acids ...

CpG density and epigenetic modification state modulate DNA mechanics, altering its intrinsic compatibility with nucleosome formation.

DNA computing is a branch of biomolecular computing concerned with the use of DNA as a carrier of information to make arithmetic and logic operations. DNA is a transformative storage medium, but ...

DNA nanotechnology is a branch of nanotechnology concerned with the design, study and application of synthetic structures based on DNA. DNA nanotechnology takes advantage of the physical and chemical ...

DNA methylation involves adding a methyl group to DNA, which may influence gene expression and affect health aspects like childhood development and aging. Lifestyle factors, especially diet, may ...

This important study identifies PRRT2 as an auxiliary regulator of Nav channel slow inactivation, proposing that PRRT2 facilitates entry into, and delays recovery from, the slow-inactivated state. The ...

Clinically meaningful lung function activity, measured by ppFEV1 and LCI2.5,with follow-up through 1 year at dose selected for Phase 2 Durable ...

Field hygiene, resistant cultivars, biocontrol, timely drying, sanitary storage, and grain sorting reduce the production of ...
