Genetic engineering is moving faster than almost any other scientific field. New tools now allow researchers to edit DNA with ...

(Reuters) - Scientists in China have manipulated embryonic stem cells to create laboratory mice with two male parents that managed to live to adulthood - though with significant developmental ...

Life runs on instructions you never see. Every cell reads DNA, turns that message into RNA, and then builds proteins that ...

Researchers at DTU Biosustain (The Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Biosustainability at DTU) have developed a new tool that significantly accelerates and simplifies the genetic engineering of yeast ...

Gene editing is now reaching the mainstream, ushering in a new era of genetic manipulation. Traditionally, inserting or deleting entire genes, regulating their expression, and altering specific ...

Despite the regulatory and funding roadblocks, Murray and fellow researcher Elizabeth Maga continue to work on a line of genetically engineered goats, which carry a human gene that produces elevated ...

The traditional explanation of the initial genetic code in life seems less established when ancient proteins seem to be recalling some other arrangement of amino-acids. A recent examination of protein ...

What if you could screen embryos for diseases before they became babies? What if you had the power to choose the traits your baby would have? Would you use it? These practically polar opposite ...

Earth's biodiversity is in crisis. An imminent "sixth mass extinction" threatens beloved and important wildlife. It also threatens to reduce the amount of genetic diversity—or variation—within species ...

Bacterial cellulose (BC) has emerged as a promising biopolymer across diverse sectors, ranging from biomedicine, food packaging, electronics, and textiles, ...
