Genome editing-based therapies typically aim to treat disease by correcting underlying genetic mutations in patient's cells.

Researchers simulated nearly every molecule in a bacterial cell — and then watched the cell grow and reproduce.

Genome editing-based therapies typically aim to treat disease by correcting underlying genetic mutations in patient’s cells. However, most genetic disorders are caused by dozens or even thousands of ...

Most lethal mutations in wild fruit flies are driven by newly transferred jumping genes, not small DNA errors, according to a new study from Duke University. The findings, published in PLOS Biology, ...

Taking a daily multivitamin for two years slowed biological aging by four months, based on several DNA-based biomarkers — but a healthy lifestyle still matters.
