Scientists sought to work out genetic errors by creating their own artificial genome, which replaced E. coli’s original ...

Scientists have created Syn57, a completely synthetic bacterium with a genetic code unlike anything in nature. Unlike all ...

A study that analyzed the genetic code of a quarter of a million U.S. volunteers found more than 275 million entirely new variants that may help explain why some groups are more prone to disease ...

Scientists have revealed a draft update to the human genetic code, calling it a pangenome and using DNA from 47 genetically diverse individuals to understand what makes us human, but different at ...

In a giant feat of genetic engineering, scientists have created bacteria that make proteins in a radically different way than all natural species do.

The synthetic bacteria contain a shorter genetic code with 57 codons rather than 64, freeing up space for further edits that might lead to new drugs or virus-resistant microbes ...
