Princeton Researchers Watch “Junk DNA” at Work
In “real time” they show the function of an enhancer in switching a gene from off to on.
Life Exponential: Life Exhibits Intelligent Design at Many Levels
Complexity (such as we see in a pile of autumn leaves) can arise spontaneously from unguided natural processes, but complex specified information cannot.
Out of One Cell, Many Tissues — But How?
Scientists are delving into the remarkable way a zygote grows through its embryonic stages to an adult.
Mouse Artificial Embryos: Human Experiments Next?
After going through the appearance of hand-wringing, I wouldn’t expect much of a problem if scientists said they really wanted to proceed.
DNA as Architect as Well as Librarian: Structural Functions of the Double Helix
Early geneticists missed a lot when they looked at DNA only for its coding function.
