The DNA foundation model Evo 2 has been published in the journal Nature. Trained on the DNA of over 100,000 species across ...

Scientists at UC Berkeley have discovered a microbe that bends one of biology’s most sacred rules. Instead of treating a specific three-letter DNA code as a clear “stop” signal, this methane-producing ...

Trained on 9 trillion DNA base pairs from every domain of life, the Evo 2 model can predict disease-causing mutations, identify genomic features and generate entirely new genetic sequences.

Crystal jellyfish have an eerie beauty: thanks to a natural protein, they emit a faint green glow. For decades, researchers ...

More than 2.3 million ancient genetic switches discovered in plants reveal how key growth controls endured 300 million years ...

Duckweed is the fastest-growing flowering plant, but new knowledge of duckweed genetics discovered by Adelaide University researchers could lead to even faster growing rates. The research team, led by ...

Researchers have pinpointed a gene mutation associated with survival at high altitudes that could restore myelin to damaged ...

The DNA foundation model Evo 2, first released in February 2025 as a preprint, is now published in the journal Nature.

A doctor who had a genetic condition that prevents teeth from forming searched for the DNA mutation that had affected his family for over 150 years.

A mutation in the TDP-43 protein reduces the viability of motor neurons without triggering protein clumps, researchers found.

A recent study by Fred Hutch biochemist Christopher Lapointe, PhD, and his colleagues, uses innovative lab techniques to ...

Although there are striking differences between the cells that make up your eyes, kidneys, brain and toes, the DNA blueprint for these cells is essentially the same. Where do those differences come ...
