RNA therapeutics target translation rather than DNA, aiming to correct shared protein production errors. By enabling cells to read through premature stop codons, engineered tRNAs could restore ...

An estimated 170,000 Australians were diagnosed with cancer in 2025. Many people know the causes of cancer are partly genetic. But how do your genes, which contribute so much of what makes you you, ...

Human DNA constantly refolds in 3D space, and these looping dynamics regulate gene expression and cell identity.

As people age, it becomes harder to know who is on track for healthy years ahead and who may be at higher risk for serious ...

Scientists have identified how specific genetic changes function in cells to influence disease risk and other human health traits. By probing regions of DNA previously linked to disease, the work has ...

The cerebral cortex, the brain’s outermost region responsible for higher cognitive functions, depends on a highly ordered, ...

Gene therapies have the potential to cure some diseases, but they are extraordinarily expensive. Location can also be a big ...

RNA structural biology has rapidly evolved from interpreting RNA as a passive genetic messenger to positioning it as a key programmable component for ...
