Human genes that encode proteins often contain non-coding segments known as introns. Removing introns is crucial for the proper expression of genetic information. Understanding how our cells ...

In a study published in Nature Structural and Molecular Biology, scientists from the Department of Medical Biochemistry and ...

Yale researchers have created "Ochre," a genomically recoded organism that enables the production of synthetic proteins with ...

Cancer cells have special adaptation mechanisms that allow them to proliferate despite changes in their genetic makeup.

Covalent bonding is a widely understood phenomenon that joins the atoms of a molecule by a shared electron pair. But in ...

A new study has discovered in mouse models that genes associated with repairing mismatched DNA are critical in eliciting damages to neurons that are most vulnerable in Huntington's disease and ...

A new UCLA Health study has discovered in mouse models that genes associated with repairing mismatched DNA are critical in ...

Synthetic biologists from Yale were able to re-write the genetic code of an organism - a novel genomically recoded organism (GRO) with one stop codon - using a cellular platform that they developed ...

The instructions for building and operating a human being are written with just four letters, abbreviated A,T,C and G representing four chemicals arranged like steps that are strung along in a ...
