How does the cell convert DNA into working proteins? The process of translation can be seen as the decoding of instructions for making proteins, involving mRNA in transcription as well as tRNA. But ...

For decades, reading proteins has remained an analog challenge in a digital world. Researchers at Stanford University have developed a “reverse translation” method that converts protein sequences into ...

A principle of DNA synthesis that has dominated biology textbooks for decades could be upended. An enzyme has been discovered ...

Methane-producing archaea from the species Methanosarcina acetivorans. The microbes are stained with a fluorescent dye that specifically binds to the membranes of archaea. The beauty of the DNA code ...

Researchers have built a platform that programs short DNA fragments inside living cells to control protein activity, all ...
