For the first time ever, a synthetic eukaryotic genome has been created. By taking yeast cells and rebuilding their genomes, scientists were able to create a yeast that more resilient and produced ...

Researchers at the Arc Institute, Stanford University, and NVIDIA have developed Evo 2, an advanced AI model capable of predicting genetic variations and generating genomic sequences across all ...

2006), there is no clear correspondence between genome size and number of protein-coding genes—another indication that the number of genes in a eukaryotic genome reveals little about organismal ...

In fact, the mere presence of a nucleus is considered one of the defining features of a eukaryotic cell. This structure is so important because it is the site at which the cell's DNA is housed and ...

Too much time has passed since eukaryotes first appeared on the evolutionary scene, and too much DNA has been scrambled between too many groups, for scientists to piece everything together. But that ...

It is the first time scientists have written a eukaryotic genome from scratch. Yeasts are a common workhorse of industrial biotechnological processes as they allow valuable chemicals to be produced ...

Now, two independent research teams have discovered that Fanzor proteins, which are found across eukaryotic life, function similar to the Cas nucleases in the CRISPR-Cas system, which means that they ...

Princeton University and Xiamen University researchers report that in tropical and subtropical oligotrophic waters, ocean ...

The preprint also presented a workflow for “generative epigenomics,” which designed DNA sequences with desirable chromatin accessibility profiles to simulate eukaryotic gene regulation.

DNA segments that can move from one part of the genome to another—are key to bacterial evolution and the development of ...

We are interested in the mechanism of chromosome replication, a process that is highly conserved across eukaryotes and that involves the duplication of both the chromosomal DNA and its associated ...

Genetic material DNA in a nucleus, plasmids are found in a few simple eukaryotic organisms. DNA is a single molecule, found free in the cytoplasm; additional DNA is found on one or more rings ...
