Recent analysis of amino acid prevalence goes back to the theoretical common ancestors of life.

Scientists have developed a theoretical model that uncovers the dual role of polyploidy -- organisms carrying extra genome copies -- in evolution. Their findings reveal that polyploidy can stabilize ...

Researchers at the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology have discovered a unique genetic mechanism that provides cells with rapid and efficient protection against viruses. The findings could lead ...

People genetically susceptible to Huntington's disease often see their movement, mood, and cognition decline slowly over time.

Biology has yet to tap into the full benefits of computer simulations, but a new AI foundation model developed by a team of scientists including CMU's Eric Xing hopes to change that.

Researchers at Tufts University revealed a possible molecular mechanism explaining how the DNA repeats are broken and then expanded in the Huntington’s disease gene, pointing to a component of the ...

A Code Blue Alert is in effect in Lancaster and Lebanon counties this week because of the weather.

Their current study reveals that having diabetes, exposure to traffic-related air pollution (in the form of nitrogen dioxide) ...
