Learn how small mutations in non-coding DNA can alter sex development in rodents.

Humans have about 3 billion DNA bases in their genetic makeup. However, most of it does not encode for protein.

The genome has thousands of genes that code for proteins, which help carry out many of the cell's important functions. But ...

Novel approach to engineering complex microbial traits generates tens of millions of gene combinations, enabling gain-of-function traits beyond those observed from individual genes SAN DIEGO, April 8, ...

Scientists have found new genetic causes for diabetes in babies—in a part of the genome that has historically been overlooked ...

Remarkably, 98 percent of our DNA does not code for genes. Once considered “junk DNA,” it is now well appreciated that these ...

Nucleic acid-based therapeutics, including antisense oligonucleotides (ASO), small interfering RNA (siRNA), messenger RNA (mRNA), immunomodulatory DNA/RNA, and gene-editing guide RNA (gRNA), hold ...
