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

For decades, biology has relied on one central assumption: the genetic code is precise. DNA is transcribed into RNA, RNA is ...

Gene editing can repair mutations that prematurely halt protein synthesis, resulting in incomplete peptides that cause various diseases. However, other approaches achieve the same effect without ...

This study offers important insight into the pathogenic basis of intragenic frameshift deletions in the carboxy-terminal domain of MECP2, which account for some Rett syndrome cases, yet similar ...

With a new year just days away, we hope the following list of the top 10 patents of 2025 sparks interest in the state of ...

Nerve fibers in the brain and spinal cord are wrapped in an insulating sheath known as myelin. For a long time, this barrier, which is essentially the brain's white matter, was believed to serve the ...

Researchers uncovered a microbe that treats one stop codon as both a termination signal and an amino-acid instruction, revealing surprising genetic flexibility that may inspire new ways to influence ...

Creative Biolabs optimizes the mRNA drug development model by integrating sequence design, RNA-protein interaction verification, and preclinical development into a single process.
