Recent advances in the techniques that are used to design and prepare protein domains have led to the realization that several proteins, which are involved in important cellular processes, contain ...

Often, the sequences of genes and proteins can suggest to us what their function is -- especially if we compare them with known sequences. Researchers have now developed a method that makes such ...

Since the sequencing of the human genome eight years ago, enormous progress has been made in analyzing and understanding it. Nevertheless, the function of most human genes is still barely understood.

Marking a significant technology breakthrough in tracking the interactions between RNA and DNA, scientists at the University of California have evolved a new technique. Known as Mapping RNA Genome ...
