Recombinant DNA (rDNA) refers to artificial DNA molecules that are created by combining genetic material from different sources. This technology involves the insertion of DNA fragments from one ...

Genome editing has advanced at a rapid pace with promising results for treating genetic conditions—but there is always room for improvement. A new paper by investigators from Mass General Brigham ...

Both proteins and DNA can carry marks, called epigenetic markers, that instruct when and which genes are expressed. Although many such markers have been described in proteins, epigenetic marks in DNA ...
