A new study finds that at least one Archaea has surprisingly flexibility when interpreting genetic code, which goes against a ...

The genetic code, a universal blueprint for life, governs how DNA and RNA sequences translate into proteins. While its complexity has inspired generations of scientists, its origins remain a topic of ...

Despite awe-inspiring diversity, nearly every lifeform – from bacteria to blue whales – shares the same genetic code. How and when this code came about has been the subject of much scientific ...

The world’s largest collection of full human genomes has just gone live. The UK Biobank — a repository of health, genomic and other biological data — today released complete genome sequences from ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Recent breakthroughs in genetics research may have uncovered new genes underlying common psychiatric disorders. Schizophrenia and ...

Most organisms on Earth have the same basic genetic code, but it comes with some flaws. Scientists sought to work out those errors by creating their own artificial genome, which replaced E. coli’s ...

Newly released documents indicate that a U.S. genetic database had received the sequence of the coronavirus two weeks before it was made public by others. By Benjamin Mueller In late December 2019, ...

The beauty of the DNA code is that organisms interpret it unambiguously. Each three-letter nucleotide sequence, or codon, in a gene codes for a unique amino acid that's added to a chain of amino acids ...
