Life runs on instructions you never see. Every cell reads DNA, turns that message into RNA, and then builds proteins that ...

Each cell has their own genetic code that helps maintain viability and directs function. This genetic code is commonly referred to as deoxyribonucleic acid or DNA. DNA is the molecule that carries ...

Scientists have long believed that a universal genetic code serves as a blueprint for all life on Earth, dictating the structure and function of organisms from the simplest bacteria to complex humans.

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Recent breakthroughs in genetics research may have uncovered new genes underlying common psychiatric disorders. Schizophrenia and ...

A team of geneticists at the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics, in The Netherlands, has found a genetic variant that codes for a tubulin protein that may be partially responsible for ...

Your genetic code is not as logical as it could be. What if we could rewrite our genetic code, and make it more efficient, sensical and organized? Join Hank and dive deep into genetics in this fun ...

Transcription and translation are processes a cell uses to make all proteins the body needs to function from information stored in the sequence of bases in DNA. The four bases (C, A, T/U, and G in the ...

DNA consists of a code language comprising four letters which make up what are known as codons, or words, each three letters long. Interpreting the language of the genetic code was the work of ...
