A Nobel laureate, he identified an enzyme that cuts DNA, laying the groundwork for milestones in scientific research and ...

Nobel laureate David Baker’s latest foundation model can design proteins that interact to any biomolecule for broad biotech applications.

Scientists discovered that certain cancer cells use a low-level activation of a DNA-dismantling enzyme—normally seen in cell ...

There are many health problems that can be traced back to errors in the genetic code. There are also many potential benefits to genetic engineering outside of healthcare. Nature has already found ways ...

The nucleus has historically been considered to be metabolically inert, importing all its needs through supply chains in the cytoplasm. Now, a new study by researchers at the Centre for Genomic ...

In crisis, the nucleus calls antioxidant enzymes to the rescue. The nucleus being metabolically active is a profound paradigm shift with implications for cancer research. In crisis, the nucleus calls ...

Enzymes that cut DNA at specific sites are called endonucleases; these enzymes play many roles in genomic replication, fidelity, and defense. The initial discovery of restriction endonucleases in the ...

(Inside Science) — An enzyme in the bacterium E. coli made more errors copying synthetic DNA when exposed to zero gravity than the same enzyme did in normal gravity, a recent study finds. The paper ...

CRISPR—Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats—is the microbial world’s answer to adaptive immunity. Bacteria don’t generate antibodies when they are invaded by a pathogen and then ...
