ITHACA, N.Y. -- The process by which a cell reads the genetic code in its DNA in order to manufacture a protein is complex, involving dozens of enzymes and other biological molecules working together.

Proteins are like Spider-Man in the multiverse. The underlying story is the same: each building block of a protein is based on a three-letter DNA code. However, change one letter, and the same protein ...

Thanks to AI, we just got stunningly powerful tools to decode life. Proteins are the minions of life. They form our bodies, fuel our metabolism, and are the target of most of today’s medicine. They ...

Researchers show how a DNA-binding protein can search the entire genome for its target sequence without getting held up on the way. The result contradicts our current understanding of gene regulation ...

Since the 1990s, nanopores have been used for sequencing strands of DNA. A voltage is applied across the nanopore, which is embedded in a thin lipid membrane, causing a stretch of DNA to thread ...

Alan Herbert, Founder and President of InsideOutBio, discusses the evolution of biological concepts related to DNA and protein structures ...
