Genetic tweaks allowed early humans to stand, balance and walk on two legs instead of moving on all fours like other primates, according to researchers.

The RAD52-DNA complex is a dynamic guardian of genomic stability. When this balance falters, cells may either self-destruct or, worse, turn cancerous.

Scientists have discovered a tardigrade protein, Dsup, that protects DNA from damage and may enhance human cellular resilience under extreme stress conditions.

The genetic link between bones discovered thousands of miles away from each other suggests a prehistoric migration route.

DNA shines a light back into the past, showing us things that fossils can't. But how far back can that light extend? Some of the oldest DNA sequences come from mastodon and polar bear fossils about 50 ...

An artificial intelligence model predicts how brain immune cells react to RNA and DNA nanoparticles, helping scientists design safer and more effective nucleic acid therapies faster.

Tasha, Julia, and Ezri Mitra's aunt Regine Velasquez encouraged them to form a group as they were all passionate about music and arts.

This statement might sound like a line from a sci-fi movie, but what if life on Earth didn’t start here at all? For decades, ...
