Scientists have discovered that horses owe their legendary stamina to a unique genetic mutation. This mutation supercharges ...

Researchers at Yale have achieved a major breakthrough in synthetic biology. They have rewritten ... It uses a single stop codon, enabling the production of synthetic proteins with innovative ...

Once the budding molecular biology community was convinced about ... clues that the researchers could use to deduce potential codon–amino acid relationships. For example, when A and C were ...

This portion of mRNA is located between the first nucleotide that is transcribed and the start codon (AUG) of the coding region, and it does not affect the sequence of amino acids in a protein ...

A codon is a sequence of three nucleotides in DNA or RNA that ... Finally, this technology could also be used to explore fundamental questions in biology, such as the malleability of the genetic code ...
