Google’s artificial intelligence research laboratory where AlphaFold was developed—has officially released a new machine ...

DNA's iconic double helix does more than "just" store genetic information. Under certain conditions it can temporarily fold into unusual shapes. Researchers at Umeå University, Sweden, have now shown ...

Since the dawn of the computer age, researchers have wrestled with two persistent challenges: how to store ever-increasing reams of data and how to protect that information from unintended access. Now ...

Every time a cell divides, it must copy its entire genome so that each daughter cell inherits a complete set of DNA. During that process, enzymes known as polymerases race along the DNA to copy its ...

For the first time, scientists have witnessed the very moment DNA begins to unravel, revealing a necessary molecular event ...

Similarly to the artistic technique of folding paper into ornate shapes, DNA origami is a self-assembling technique of precisely folding single-stranded DNA scaffolds into well-defined nanostructures.

A new study shows that cancer damages its own DNA by pushing key genes to work too hard. Researchers found that the most ...

By blending scientific accuracy with creative design, one builder hopes to make the history of DNA accessible, interactive, ...
