While the central dogma of molecular biology outlines the linear flow of genetic information from DNA to RNA to proteins (black lines), glycomics introduces a “3rd code of life”—glycans—that operates ...

CRISPR is a powerful DNA-editing tool that has underpinned huge advancements in human health care in the last decade. It is a ...

The artificial cell nucleus (right) constructed using the purified DNA was morphologically very similar to the natural cell nucleus derived from an egg (left). A team led by Professor Kazuo Yamagata ...

James D. Watson, whose role as co-discoverer of the structure of the DNA molecule in 1953 made him one of the key figures in the rise of molecular biology as well as the obvious choice to be first ...

This image depicts the chemical structure of cytosine. It shows a hexagonal ring with nitrogen atoms at positions 1 and 3, and a primary amine group attached to carbon 4. The two remaining positions ...

On February 28, 1953, two scientists, James Watson and Francis Crick, announced they had figured out the structure of DNA. DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the hereditary material in humans and almost ...

How AI foundation models trained on DNA could transform plant biology ...

James Watson, the scientist who became famous for helping discover the structure of DNA in 1953 and notorious decades later for suggesting that Black people are intellectually inferior to whites, has ...
