Read excerpt
Custom genetic codes can now be created with ease A new understanding of transfer RNA biology means researchers can assign up to 34 codons to amino acids of their choosing The latest chemistry news, including important research advances, business and policy trends, chemical safety practices, career guidance, and more. Nearly every organism on the planet uses the same genetic code, corresponding to the same 20 amino acids and giving rise to the seemingly endless protein diversity seen in nature.

This new human genome has almost no gaps Researchers have assembled the first telomere-to-telomere, diploid phased genome from a single human cell line The latest chemistry news, including important research advances, business and policy trends, chemical safety practices, career guidance, and more. When the completion of the Human Genome Project was announced on June 26, 2000, scientists had managed to sequence and assemble about 92% of the human genome. The reason the earliest drafts were incom

Chemistry in Pictures: DNA’s cellular do-si-do Showcasing the beauty of chemistry, chemical engineering, and related sciences. Cell division is an elaborate dance shared between protein and DNA partners. This fluorescence microscope video captures the initial cell division right after fertilization of a roundworm embryo. First, microtubules (bright green) gather alongside DNA (purple) in the nucleus of the cell on the right, which is derived from sperm. The nucleus from the egg cell on the left

AI-designed nucleases build on nature’s design Researchers used AI to create variants of a CRISPR-Cas12-like nuclease, some of which show increased editing activity The latest chemistry news, including important research advances, business and policy trends, chemical safety practices, career guidance, and more. Artificial intelligence is already great at predicting how proteins fold. And soon, AI might become great at designing new proteins from scratch. A group of researchers led by Nobel laure

What happens when you edit an essential gene in human embryos? The answer might help improve the success rate of IVF, researchers say A version of this story appeared in Volume 104, Issue 8 The latest chemistry news, including important research advances, business and policy trends, chemical safety practices, career guidance, and more. Researchers led by developmental biologist Kathy Niakan at the University of Cambridge have used base editing in human embryos to learn more about human embryonic
