DNA sequencing is a laboratory method used to determine the sequence of a DNA molecule. The method was developed by Frederick Sanger in 1975, who was later awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry in 1980 ...

Claims regarding 50% genetic similarity, while likely overstated, are based on a comparison of similarly functioning genes, not the specific DNA sequences that make up the human genome. A popular ...

Here we show that DNA polymerases derived from the bacterium E. coli are considerably more prone to errors under microgravity, such as occurs in space. Our results thus have important implications for ...

A storage architecture that uses synthetic DNA. Developed by molecular biologists, digital data is encoded as a sequence in the DNA and decoded by sequencing the DNA. Compared to hard drives and solid ...
