Material collected from asteroid Bennu by NASA’s OSIRIS-REx spacecraft contains 14 of the 20 amino acids used in Earth proteins and all five nucleobases that encode DNA and RNA. The findings, ...

Nucleic acids are complex biological molecules that store and transmit genetic information in all living organisms. They are essential for the survival and reproduction of life on Earth. The two main ...

Minimally disruptive genetic code expansion enables faithful, site-specific labeling of G3BP1 and TDP-43, revealing native stress granule dynamics and ALS-linked protein behavior in live cells.

A trio of common amino acids may hold the key to unlocking far more powerful gene therapies. Researchers found that adding them to lipid nanoparticles can boost mRNA delivery up to 20-fold and push ...
