A study reveals DNA and RNA epigenetics work together as a complementary system for precise gene regulation, crucial for cell ...

NASA scientists found amino acids, key minerals, and nucleobases for DNA in samples from the OSIRIS-REx asteroid mission.

Researchers studying gene expression have access to vast amounts of data from cells or tissues. This is thanks to advances in ...

For decades, we’ve believed the bright redness of sunburn — along with its irritating sting and peeling skin — was the result of ultraviolet (UV) radiation wreaking havoc on DNA. But now, a new study ...

Samples contain all five nucleobases of DNA and RNA, supporting theory that asteroids may have seeded Earth with life's ...

"Sunburn damages the DNA, leading to cell death and inflammation. So the textbooks say. But in this study we were surprised to learn that this is a result of damage to the RNA, not the DNA that ...

Sunburn has traditionally been attributed to UV-induced DNA damage. However, a new study reveals that RNA, another vital cellular molecule, plays a major role in triggering acute sunburn reactions.

Researchers have optimized DNA-nanoparticle motors to achieve speeds of 30 nm/s, matching natural motor proteins. By ...

A recent study published in Cell reveals that the repeated DNA sequence that leads to Huntington’s disease (HD) expands ...
