DNA, often called the blueprint of life, is built from four chemical building blocks known as deoxy-nucleoside triphosphates ...
Could yeast and humans be any more different? Going by looks alone, probably not. But peering into our genomes reveals ...
Natural spiderwebs are good at capturing DNA from the environment, but artificial webs are cheap and provide better control – ...
Our experiences leave traces in the brain, stored in small groups of cells called engrams. Engrams are thought to hold the ...
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 ...
ETH Zurich scientists have created “MetaGraph,” a revolutionary DNA search engine that functions like Google for genetic data. By compressing global genomic datasets by a factor of 300, it allows ...
Selective autophagy ensures the targeted degradation of damaged or surplus cellular components, including organelles, thereby ...
