A protein tied to ALS and dementia may have a much bigger role in disease than scientists realized. Researchers found that ...

A protein found in bowhead whales, one of the longest-living mammals on Earth, could help improve how human cells repair DNA, according to new research from scientists at the Albert Einstein College ...

Stanford Medicine researchers have built CRISPR-GPT, a large language model designed to automate the full arc of gene-editing ...

If severe DNA damage is not repaired, the consequences for the health of cells and tissues are dramatic. A study led by researchers at Goethe University Frankfurt, part of the Rhine-Main University ...

A protein, TDP43, previously linked to dementia and ALS, has been found to control DNA repair. Researchers say abnormal ...

DNA can sustain serious injuries called double strand breaks, in which both strands of the helix snap. These breaks are among the most dangerous forms of DNA damage and immediately trigger the cell's ...
