Researchers at University of Tsukuba have decoded the nuclear genome of Amorphochlora amoebiformis, a unicellular marine alga ...

Study suggests Apennine brown bears evolved smaller bodies and calmer behavior after generations of living close to people in Central Italy.

The South American lungfish genome, the largest animal genome sequenced at 91 billion base pairs, has been fully decoded.

A tiny percentage of our DNA—around 2%—contains 20,000-odd genes. The remaining 98%—long known as the non-coding genome, or ...

Researchers have revealed that so-called “junk DNA” contains powerful switches that help control brain cells linked to ...

But only a tiny percentage of our DNA – around 2% – contains our 20,000-odd genes. The remaining 98% – long known as the non-coding genome, or so-called ‘junk’ DNA – includes many of the switches that ...

Researchers have identified elusive DNA switches in brain support cells that influence genes tied to Alzheimer’s disease. When people think about DNA, they often picture genes that determine our ...

One of the biggest quests in biology is understanding how every cell in an animal's body carries an identical genome yet ...

When most of us think of DNA, we have a vague idea it's made up of genes that give us our physical features, our behavioral ...

A study by Kristin Winchell (NYU) sequenced the genomes of these reptiles and found 93 specific genes related to limb and skin development that had diverged from forest populations. The city lizards ...

A groundbreaking genetic study has revealed that Italians who reach 100 carry significantly more ancient Western hunter-gatherer DNA than their younger counterparts. The research, published in ...
