Google DeepMind has expanded its AlphaFold AI system to not only predict the structure of proteins, but also to model how proteins interact with other cell structures, including DNA, RNA, and small ...

“DeepMind’s AlphaGenome represents a major milestone in the field of genomic AI. This level of resolution, particularly for non-coding DNA, is a breakthrough that moves the technology from theoretical ...

In a new study, Chinese researchers have discovered the previously unrecognized role of alternative splicing of the DOC2A gene in schizophrenia.

In a recent study published in the journal Cell, researchers developed a deep learning model, "LucaProt," a transformer-based AI model to detect highly divergent ribonucleic acid (RNA)-dependent RNA ...

RNA’s Surprising Role in DNA Repair New insights could lead to improved treatments for cancer and other diseases. Francesca Storici and her research team discovered a surprising role for RNA in DNA ...

RNA plays a vital role in how our genes are expressed and how diseases develop. Yet, because RNA molecules constantly change shape, understanding how they work has long been a major scientific ...

DNA and RNA methylation, initially thought to operate as distinct pathways, have been shown to interact closely, shifting our understanding of gene regulation. A team of researchers from the ...

Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University have discovered a way to target RNA that could lead to new treatment options for ...

In human cells, there are about 20,000 genes on a two-meter DNA strand—finely coiled up in a nucleus about 10 micrometers in diameter. By comparison, this corresponds to a 40-kilometer thread packed ...
