Enzymes are proteins – large molecules that do the behind-the-scenes work that keep all living things alive. These proteins are made up of amino acids, a set of building blocks that can be stitched ...

Isomorphic Labs, a spin-off from DeepMind, is applying AI-first principles to drug discovery rather than just protein ...

Repeats Raise Risk. The more STR expansions a person carried, the higher their odds for AD (left). People with more repeat expansions tended to have worse tau pathology as per Braak stage (right).

Neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) are a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease, formed by the accumulation of tau protein into ...

Can you get organic compounds in a fossilized bone? There was a time we thought not, but a new study that used a novel ...

“We’re aiming to have the cleanest, purest, highest-quality research peptides and bioregulators in the space,” says Campbell.

Scientists have discovered that some tiny segments of RNA thought to be junk instead have a functional role in suppressing production of certain messenger RNAs and appear to help cells respond to ...

Biomedical engineers at Duke University have demonstrated a new synthetic approach that turbocharges bacteria into producing ...

New gene therapy modalities, such as CRISPR guide RNA (single guide ribonucleic acid [sgRNA]) and messenger RNA (mRNA), ...

Synthetic biologists from Yale were able to re-write the genetic code of an organism - a novel genomically recoded organism (GRO) with one stop codon - using a cellular platform that they developed ...
