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

The way the body ages could be more resilient than previously thought, a new study suggests.

How life evolved is one of the central questions in science and has fascinated humans for centuries. Early Earth was undoubtedly a harsh environment, but we know surprisingly little about the ...

Although the genetic sequence is the same in every cell in the body, only a subset of those genes is expressed by each cell.

Researchers have uncovered a way to manipulate DNA at the atomic level using electric field gradients to control nitrogen nuclear spins. Their findings suggest that DNA could be used as both a storage ...

A new study explains how mitochondria act as “reservoirs” to store NAD for cells to use, which could help scientists come up ...
