Genetic engineering is considered one of the most sophisticated scientific tools for changing the genetic blueprint of a living organism according to our suitable design. This attention-seeking ...

Engineering changes on the chromosomal level could help us understand how to repair malformations in chromosomes. Up until now, those kinds of genetic changes have only been possible in yeast cells, ...

His recent work determined genetic engineering would be covered by the Endangered Species Act and that the existing law would provide regulatory oversight and authority to federal agencies. His ...

The Era of ‘Point and Click’ Genetic Engineering? A new genome editing technique is allowing us to alter DNA—the source code of life—with unprecedented precision. It is known as CRISPR ...

Scientists are pioneering a new method of genetic engineering for basic and applied biological research and medicine. Their work has the potential to open new doors in genomic research by ...

Thanks to genetic engineering, we now dehorn cattle, produce disease-resistant pigs, and herd goats that grow longer hair, all in the name of productivity.

The publication that describes the work contains extensive details on the genetic engineering used to ensure that the pig tissue would survive in a human host. A test case ...

Genetic engineering may not be any more effective than conventional breeding at increasing the growth of farmed trout, according to Canadian researchers.
