Scientists discover hidden DNA scaffolding that forms before genes activate, revealing life’s blueprint is built before it begins.

For decades, scientists believed a fertilized egg’s DNA began as a shapeless mass, only organizing itself once the embryo switched on its genes. But new research reveals that the genome is already ...

For many years, researchers believed that the DNA inside a newly fertilized egg began as a structural ‘blank slate’ – a loose ...

For decades, scientists viewed the genome of a newly fertilized egg as a structural "blank slate"—a disordered tangle of DNA ...

A fleeting DNA fold called i‑DNA can switch cancer‑related genes on and off, revealing a hidden structural weak point that ...

Scientists are exploring how DNA’s physical structure can store vast amounts of data and encode secure information.

Alan Herbert, Founder and President of InsideOutBio, discusses the evolution of biological concepts related to DNA and protein structures ...

An engineering researcher at RIT has discovered the means to process data using DNA. Their biocomputing design is a breakthrough that builds on innovative DNA engineering and computing system advances ...

DNA, the blueprint of life, is best known for its fundamental role as genetic material—storing and transmitting biological information through the precise sequence of its bases. For decades, this ...

While the central dogma of molecular biology outlines the linear flow of genetic information from DNA to RNA to proteins (black lines), glycomics introduces a “3rd code of life”—glycans—that operates ...
