Improving the genetic circuits in eukaryotic protein production systems—like human cell lines or Chinese hamster ovaries—has the potential to enhance their value so they may offer not only their own ...

A recent study published in the journal Nature Aging investigated the genetic architecture of artificial intelligence (AI)-derived biological age gaps (BAGs) for multiple organ systems and their links ...

Reverse genetics systems allow the functions of genes to be determined by changing an individual gene and observing the result, creating what is known as a recombinant virus. They are powerful tools ...

Cell and gene therapies have offered hope to patients with genetic abnormalities (e.g., rare diseases) or long-term disorders such as cancer. Innovative approaches for correcting sequences via editing ...

Using single-cell epigenomic profiling of immune cells from 110 individuals, researchers show that genetic variation and ...

Humans have a distinctive skeleton, and are the only bipedal great apes (the great ape species are bonobos, chimpanzees, gorillas, orangutans, and humans). While the evolution of the human skeleton ...

For many years, scientists have known that genetic variants, or differences in DNA code across people, play some role in neurological and psychiatric disorders. But the details were murky. Now, ...
