A team was able to edit the DNA of Lactobacillus strains directly without a template from other organisms. This technique is indistinguishable from natural variation and enabled the researchers to ...

Among the major classes of RNAs in the cell, tRNAs remain the most difficult to characterize via deep sequencing approaches, as tRNA structure and nucleotide modifications can each interfere with cDNA ...

Unique reproducibility effort in Brazil focuses on common methods rather than a single field ― and prompts call for reform.

New research predicts the location of DNA sequences that can form structures besides the canonical double helix — non-B DNA — in the recently released telomere-to-telomere genomes of the great apes, ...

Certain DNA sequences can form structures other than the canonical double helix. These alternative DNA conformations—referred ...

Ingrida Domarkienė, a geneticist at Vilnius University in Lithuania, discusses the exciting developments made possible by ...
