DNA makes RNA, RNA makes protein, protein makes phenotype—was the guiding framework for understanding inheritance and disease ...

Here we present the crystal structure of MutS in complex with a 30-base pair (bp) DNA oligomer with a G·T mismatch at position 9. The non-conserved 53 amino acids at the carboxy terminus were ...

Scientists have shed new light on the rhino family tree after recovering a protein sequence from a fossilized tooth from more ...

A Ph.D. graduate student in biomolecular engineering at UC Santa Cruz, with a background in computer science and mathematics, ...

No longer a mere assistant who carries out the commands of DNA, RNA takes the lead in emerging therapeutics.

In this article, we review the current status of affinity purification and mass spectrometry (AP–MS) and its promise for better understanding protein complexes, complex structure and the ...

Researchers have extracted 2-million-year-old protein remains from Paranthropus robustus teeth to reveal biological sex and genetic variability.

Perhaps best known as a immune-system boost or antidote to scurvy, vitamin C has been found to rejuvenate aging skin by ...

New imaging tools reveal how within an hour of infection, the virus begins to alter our chromosomes to kick-start its own replication.

University of Cincinnati Cancer Center researchers looked billions of years into the past to learn more about the potential future of precision ...
