In a new study, published in Cell, researchers describe a newfound mechanism for creating proteins in a giant DNA virus, ...

Nucleotide synthesis-the production of the basic components of DNA and RNA-is essential for cell growth and division. In most animal cells, this process depends closely on properly functioning ...

DNA synthesis is vital to several processes in biopharmaceutical innovation, including the development of gene therapies, CRISPR gene editing, antisense oligonucleotides and RNA therapies. The need ...

DNA is the raw material of modern medicine yet is the only part of drug development not accessible at the lab bench. DNA synthesis, the first step in most biological workflows including gene synthesis ...

The state of DNA synthesis is a bit like humanity’s journey to the moon—just because something has been achieved before doesn’t mean we should cease figuring out how to do it better.” That is how ...

Genetic medicines such as cell and gene therapies and mRNA vaccines offer extraordinary promise for treating a variety of diseases, including genetic disorders, cancer, and autoimmune diseases. These ...

In an era when Washington seems incapable of finding common ground on virtually any issue, it’s notable to encounter a policy area where stakeholders across the political spectrum agree. Gene ...
