In the Code of the Wild documentary film, Cody Sheehy (award winning producer and director) and CRISPR scientist Samira Kiani explore the controversial and secretive world of genetic engineering.

Cracking Your Genetic Code We are on the brink of a new era of personalized, gene-based medicine. Are we ready for it?

Scientists have created a complete E. coli genome with an altered "genetic dictionary," a significant step toward the project of synthetic life.

The genetic code, a universal blueprint for life, governs how DNA and RNA sequences translate into proteins. While its complexity has inspired generations of scientists, its origins remain a topic ...

The genetic code is a set of rules that defines how the four-letter code of DNA is translated into the 20-letter code of amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins.

Scientists said the findings offer the first robust evidence that genes contribute to a person’s chance of developing the ...

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 ...

A group of scientists at VCU Massey Comprehensive Cancer Center has uncovered a new genetic code that deploys a cluster of cells that attack healthy organs and overpowers the normal cells.
