Harvard scientists have unveiled a new technique called expansion in situ genome sequencing (ExIGS) that combines existing in situ genome sequencing (IGS) with expansion microscopy (ExM). The ...

Researchers at Integra Therapeutics , in collaboration with the Pompeu Fabra University (UPF) Department of Medicine and Life Sciences ( MELIS ) and ...

New enhancer protein expands IDT's market-leading portfolio of HDR reagents, empowering cell and gene therapy developers to ...

Previously unmapped sections of the genome explain how cells sense their mechanical environment and could open new paths for ...

The viruses in question are bacteriophages, which only infect bacteria – they can’t infect humans, or any other animals for ...

Thousands of new genes are hidden inside the “dark matter” of our genome. Previously thought to be noise left over from evolution, a new study found that some of these tiny DNA snippets can make ...

Remnants of ancient viral pandemics in the form of viral DNA sequences embedded in our genomes are still active in healthy people, according to new research my colleagues and I recently published.

Genome editing is a powerful biotechnology tool that allows scientists to make precise changes to an organism's DNA. It involves the use of specialized enzymes, known as engineered nucleases or ...

Not all DNA looks like the familiar twisted ladder. Sometimes, parts of our genetic code fold into unusual shapes. One such structure, the G-quadruplex (G4), looks like a knot. These knots can play ...
