Structural variants in the human genome include cytogenetically detectable and submicroscopic deletions, duplications, large-scale copy-number variants, inversions and translocations. The ability ...

Synthetic biologists from Yale were able to re-write the genetic code of an organism - a novel genomically recoded organism (GRO) with one stop codon - using a cellular platform that they developed ...

The α herpesviruses (such as HSV-1 and VZV) lurk in non-dividing neuronal cells. It is not necessary to express viral proteins to tether the viral genome to chromosomes. The β and γ herpesviruses ...
