Population genomics refers to the large-scale study of genetic variation both within and between populations of organisms, ...

How do we study the molecular structure of DNA ... with variations called single-nucleotide polymorphisms, or SNPs.

Researchers have shown that differences in the entire rotavirus genome—not just its two surface proteins—affect how well ...

Here, the authors present cryo-EM structures of CXCR3 in complex with small molecule agonists and discover their dual-agonism at CXCR7.

Historically, the vast majority of pharmaceutical drugs have been meticulously designed down to the atomic level. The ...

Historically, small molecule drugs have been precisely designed down to the atomic scale. Considering their relatively large complex structures, nanomedicines have lagged behind. Researchers argue ...

PCR genetic analysis has been in the spotlight since COVID-19, but light is now further facilitating PCR-free methods. Osaka ...

Such molecules would be suited to acting as quantum bits, or qubits, the basic unit of information in quantum systems. But ...

Among the major classes of RNAs in the cell, tRNAs remain the most difficult to characterize via deep sequencing approaches, as tRNA structure and nucleotide modifications can each interfere with cDNA ...
