Researchers have found that the way DNA is packaged in cells can directly impact how fast DNA itself is copied during cell division. They discovered that DNA packaging sends signals through an unusual ...

Researchers reveal that metabolic enzymes known for their roles in energy production and nucleotide synthesis are taking on unexpected 'second jobs' within the nucleus, orchestrating critical ...

In recent years, scientists have created a range of new methods based on CRISPR-Cas technology for precisely editing the ...

The successful genetic and metabolic engineering of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 demonstrates the feasibility of enhancing ...

“That’s like an atlas – but then there’ll be this oracle aspect of it,” he said, “where it will tell you what you have to do, what genetic engineering you need to do to make those microbes better at ...

DNA evidence reshapes the story of Pompeii's 79 AD eruption victims, challenging old assumptions and revealing new insights ...

Thomas Hurd, associate professor in the Department of Molecular Genetics at the University of Toronto, will talk about mtDNA degradation at 12:55 p.m. Wednesday in Bell Engineering 2267.

By studying changes in gene expression, researchers learn how cells function at a molecular level, which could help them understand the development of certain diseases.

Genetically modified (GM) foods are foods that come from organisms that have had their DNA altered through genetic engineering or other techniques. According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), GM ...
