Researchers have identified genetic variant discrepancies between the two human reference genomes, creating guidance for laboratories to take advantage of an improved human reference genome.

Researchers have discovered several bacteria from the Atlantic Ocean that use DNA as a food source.

Researchers have demonstrated that pancreatic cancer patients with mutant KRAS-addicted tumors could benefit from treatment with a CDK inhibitor.

According to a study, vitamin D deficiency strongly exaggerates the craving for and effects of opioids, potentially increasing the risk for dependence and addiction.

A research team has uncovered new insights into the role of polyphenols in the soil microbiome. The updated theory is that soils can be food sources for the microbes that live there.

Scientists were able to show for the first time how Pseudomonas bacteria use a self-produced signal molecule to manipulate phages in a competing bacterial strain selectively to defeat their enemy. This targeted control of phages provides entirely new biotechnological and therapeutic approaches.

Researchers have created a quantum microscope that can reveal biological structures that would otherwise be impossible to see.

Researchers have found targets of papain-like protease in the human proteome, including proteins involved in cardiovascular function, blood clotting and inflammation.

Researchers from the Hubrecht Institute in Utrecht (The Netherlands) and the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Biomedicine in Münster (Germany) used computer simulations to reveal in atomic detail how a short piece of DNA opens while it is tightly wrapped around the proteins that package our genome.

A new study identifies the presence of the elemental metals iron and copper within plaques taken from the brains of people with Alzheimer’s disease (AD).
