Directed evolution is usually a laborious process that often takes weeks in which proteins rapidly evolve and develop ...

For decades, large stretches of human DNA were dismissed as "junk" and considered to serve no real purpose. In a new study ...

New research links an ancient DNA sequence to neuron growth, brain-cell balance, and a cognitive flexibility trait that may ...

But the new study also suggests that the ilium underwent a second major change millions of years later, when humans evolved ...

called a neural crest cell, facilitated the evolution of the endostyle into the thyroid. The research is described in a paper appearing in the journal Science Advances. The work was conducted ...

Thought too hard to do, a new platform evolved proteins in mammalian cells, which could help researchers design drugs that ...

Germinal centers are high-speed evolution machines. Tiny clusters in the lymph nodes, germinal centers refine antibodies through mutation and expansion until they produce high-affinity B cells ...

It has been over 60 years since Osamu Shimomura et al. discovered Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) 1. Since then, the color palette for fluorescent proteins has been extended to span blue through to ...
