Decades of laboratory work previously required months of physical crystallography to isolate a single biomolecule. With artificial intelligence models now predicting complex molecular folds with atomic precision, access to these structures has become a cornerstone of modern life sciences. Accessing…
Researchers have made a significant breakthrough in their mission to resurrect the dodo from extinction after a cutting-edge AI tool identified 2,300 genetic traits. The discovery comes from pioneering US biotech firm Colossal Biosciences, widely recognized for bringing back three dire…

Updated | By Tando Ntunja Trending and baffling: how is it biologically possible for a tree to grow fruit that is in the likeness of women? Reports circulating of a 'sacred tree' in Thailand has the World Wide Web divided over…
Researchers in a Mayo Clinic-led study have shown how to detect a broad range of DNA mutations in noncancerous human tissues and across the genome. The analysis, drawing on more than 90 trillion DNA letters of sequencing data, could help scientists…
EurekAlert! Assessment of multiple cytidine deaminases for the development of CBEs in potato. A research team has developed a highly efficient cytosine base editing platform for potato, overcoming a major barrier to precise improvement of this genetically complex crop. By…
Mitochondrial DNA survives inside dense petrous bone and tooth enamel far longer than degraded nuclear markers, allowing geneticists to trace maternal lineage across hundreds of generations without interference from paternal recombination. The biological bridge linking modern Somerset residents to prehistoric…
