Scientists have long known that human genes spring into action through instructions delivered by the precise order of our DNA, directed by the four different types of individual links, or "bases," ...

The University of California San Diego researchers used artificial intelligence to identify a DNA activation code, which was previously known to be "an enigma," but can later be utilized in n ...

Researchers at the Max Delbrück Center have developed a new method to discover how DNA controls genes. Their technique, ...

Figure 1: Light-inducible, RNA-guided activation of endogenous human genes by the LACE system. All new plasmids described in this study are available from Addgene (plasmid ID 60551-4, 60718-9). All ...

In a series of experiments using human cancer cell lines, scientists say they have successfully used light as a trigger to make precise cuts in genomic material rapidly, using a molecular scalpel ...

What if doctors had a remote control that they could use to steer a patient's own cells to a wound to speed up the healing process? Although such a device is still far from reality, researchers ...
