The nucleus has historically been considered to be metabolically inert, importing all its needs through supply chains in the cytoplasm. Now, a new study by researchers at the Centre for Genomic ...

Researchers have come one step closer to unlocking the potential of synthetic DNA, which could help scientists develop never-before-seen proteins in the lab. The genetic alphabet contains just four ...

A research group led by the University of Osaka has discovered that the DNA repair enzyme Polβ plays a crucial role in protecting the developing brain from harmful mutations. The study found that a ...

Like adding new letters to an existing language’s alphabet to expand its vocabulary, adding new synthetic nucleotides to the genetic alphabet could expand the possibilities of synthetic biology. This ...
