For the archaeon Thermococcus kodakarensis, DNA-attached polysomes have been visualized by electron microscopy (French et al., 2007) suggesting that transcription translation coupling (TTC) occurs in ...

By treating DNA as a language, Brian Hie’s “ChatGPT for genomes” could pick up patterns that humans can’t see, accelerating ...

Archaea are organisms consisting of a single cell without a nucleus and with distinct structural, physiological and evolutionary characteristics. They inhabit a wide range of habitats, including ...

Learning about your genetics and ancestry is easier than ever. All you need to do is choose from the many DNA ancestry tests available online, receive your kit and send back the required DNA samples.

DNA polymerases carry out crucial functions in many DNA metabolic processes. Polymerases catalyse the addition, using a template, of complementary nucleotides to the 3′ end of DNA primer strands.

Comparison of that ancient DNA with modern human DNA showed that the two species had interbred and that people today still carry the genetic fingerprint of that intermixing. Since then ...

For the study, the diversity of bacteria and archaea of each individual sample was determined using DNA sequences, and the diversity found in all samples from a particular biome used to determine ...

While most known types of DNA damage are fixed by our cells' in-house DNA repair mechanisms, some forms of DNA damage evade repair and can persist for many years, new research shows. This means ...

This article explores the transformative potential and challenges of single cell omics in advancing our understanding of ...

CRISPR is short for ‘clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats.’ The term refers to a series of repetitive patterns in the DNA of bacteria and archaea that were extensively researched ...

Most life on Earth relies on the sun’s energy for survival, but what about organisms in the deep sea that live beyond the ...
