When the genomes of parents come together to create the genome of a child, their DNA recombines; similar parts are rearranged so that a child carries sections of their parents genomes that have been ...
Researchers have gained new insights into the genetic basis of rye reproduction. They have demonstrated how plants recombine ...
Bowhead whales can live over 200 years thanks to a protein that helps their cells repair DNA damage efficiently.
Recombinant DNA (rDNA) refers to artificial DNA molecules that are created by combining genetic material from different sources. This technology involves the insertion of DNA fragments from one ...
One of the biggest challenges in cancer treatment is chemoresistance: Tumors that initially respond well to chemotherapy ...
A spider on the Canary Islands lost half its DNA but gained more genetic variety. Scientists say this changes how we ...
A recent study, undertaken by researchers at the Tokyo Metropolitan University and the Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Medical Science (both Japan), unravels key steps in the process of homologous ...
A huge budget increase proposed by the president. Numerous legislative initiatives at the federal and state level. Public fears of biological harm. That is the new reality brought to us by ...
Scientists in Helsinki studied nearly 400 dog families to see how new DNA mutations arise in puppies. They found that older parents, especially fathers, pass on more genetic changes. The research ...
