Artificial intelligence detects a new class of mutations behind autism
Many mutations in DNA that contribute to disease are not in actual genes but instead lie in the 99% of
Massive sequencing study links rare DNA alterations to type 2 diabetes
An international consortium of scientists has analyzed protein-coding genes from nearly 46,000 people, linking rare DNA alterations to type 2
A “biomultimeter” lets scientists measure RNA and protein production in real-time
Builders of genetic circuits face the same quandary as builders of digital circuits: testing their designs. Yet unlike bioengineers, engineers

Cancer cell genomes identified using new technology
If a tumour is made up of cells with many different genomes, a single drug might not kill them all.
Genetic conditions lead to range of overlapping needs in children
Deletions and duplications of DNA are responsible for wide-ranging developmental difficulties in children, finds a new study by Cardiff University.
How a cell keeps its 2 metres of DNA without knots? Methods of rope climbers may be in play
DNA strands are long and fussy. They can actually tie into knots, makings parts of them difficult to read. And
