Changes in genes have been linked to the development of different diseases for a while. However, it's not exactly clear what ...

Scientists discovered that aging DNA repeats expand at wildly different speeds—and in some people, the consequences can be devastating. A sweeping genetic study drawing on data from more than 900,000 ...

A team of scientists at the University of Seville has identified an essential process that protects DNA integrity in reproductive cells, providing new clues about how organisms avoid genetic defects ...

What scientists long believed were knots in DNA may actually be persistent twists formed during nanopore analysis, revealing an overlooked mechanism with major implications.

Scientists are one step closer to pinpointing fragments of Leonardo da Vinci’s elusive DNA. A team of researchers from the ...

But some Neanderthal DNA helped modern humans survive and reproduce, and thus it has lingered in our genomes. Nowadays, ...
