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.

Researchers from Arizona State University and an international team have found that so-called junk DNA molecules, known as ...

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 ...

Synonymous DNA substitutions have often been viewed as quiet changes because they do not alter the amino acid sequence of a ...

Migrating newborn neurons suffer routine double-strand DNA breaks from physical stress during brain development.

Many repetitive regions of the genome have been considered "junk DNA" because the available technologies did not allow them to be studied at sufficient resolution. This is the case for the SST1/NBL2 ...

A long‑overlooked stretch of the human genome appears to play a distinct role in shaping the social and stereotypic repetitive behaviours that define Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), without affecting ...

EMBL researchers created SDR-seq, a next-generation tool that decodes both DNA and RNA from the same cell. It finally opens access to non-coding regions, where most disease-associated genetic variants ...

A research team at Bar-Ilan University in Israel has reported that by making only slight changes to specific non-coding DNA regions in female mouse embryos, individuals with XX chromosomes, which are ...

A study has traced thousands of conserved regulatory elements back 300 million years, revealing deep principles of plant genome evolution—a discovery that could pave the way for more precise ...
