It will take a lot more genetic science than a few tweaks to hair length to make a mammoth from its closest living relative, ...

Genetic engineering in non-human primates has long been limited by the need for virus-based gene delivery methods. Recently, ...

Japanese researchers used a nonviral piggyBac system to genetically modify cynomolgus monkeys, enabling more accurate disease ...

DNA sequencing is any chemical, enzymatic or technological procedure for determining the linear order of nucleotide bases in DNA. Sanger sequencing by replicative synthesis in the presence of ...

PCR-Machines are classified depending on the capacity of PCR used such as Nested PCR or Reverse Transcriptase PCR (RT-PCR ), or Multiplex RT PCR. PCR-machines are used for replication of DNA ...

(HTG), provider of the quantitative Nuclease Protection Assay (qNPA), have entered into a supply agreement. Under the agreement, Roche NimbleGen will provide HTG with high density, multiplex DNA ...

Regions of mouse DNA can be changed so they resemble genes in other organisms, such as a woolly mammoth. These techniques are known collectively as multiplex editing and include the best known ...

They then combined three editing technologies to edit the mouse genome—RNP-mediated knockout, multiplex precision genome editing, and precision homology-directed repair. They used these methods ...

A quarter of a century ago, Stifler from American Pie got decapitated by a piece of train shrapnel and launched a truly great ...

Geoff Bennett: The genetic testing company 23andMe has filed for bankruptcy. And its potential sale has raised alarms about what could happen to the DNA data of its millions of users. 23andMe was ...
