To our immune system, a potentially lifesaving gene therapy can look a lot like a dangerous infection. That's because most ...

Measurements of total DNA and methylated tumor suppressor genes in the plasma of patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) before, and after chemotherapy, as potential biomarkers for ...

An archaeon reads the same codon in two different ways, overturning a doctrine that has stood for 60 years. Living organisms ...

Genotypes that confer drug resistance were evaluated in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) proviral DNA obtained from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and lymphoid tissue at baseline and ...

The genetic code is made up of a total of 64 base triplets or codons. At least one codon encodes the information for each of the 20 amino acids used in the synthesis of proteins during translation.

DNA is often referred to as the blueprint for life, however scientists have for the first time discovered a microbe that uses two different translations of the DNA code at random. This unexpected ...
