A new study finds that at least one Archaea has surprisingly flexibility when interpreting genetic code, which goes against a ...

PolyPeptide offers comprehensive solutions from early-stage development to commercial supply. Credit: Dmitry Kalinovsky/Shutterstock.com. Lifecore Biomedical and PolyPeptide Laboratories have entered ...

DNA is a biological molecule that contains the instructions an organism needs to function, develop, and reproduce. It is present in all forms of life on earth and contains each organism’s genetic code ...

We’ve heard of GMOs, but this is ridiculous. Scientists at the Medical Research Council’s Laboratory of Molecular Biology say they’ve engineered a bacteria whose genetic code is more efficient than ...

In H1 2025, PolyPeptide generated EUR 167.1 million in revenue, representing a 23.7% increase versus H1 2024 or a 23.3% growth at constant currency rates. Commercial revenue increased by 37.9% versus ...

The DNA of nearly all life on Earth contains many redundancies, and scientists have long wondered whether these redundancies served a purpose or if they were just leftovers from evolutionary processes ...

We have gone further than ever before in creating life that is unlike anything that has evolved naturally. The genome of an Escherichia coli bacterium has been redesigned on a computer to use just 57 ...

To overcome the inherent challenge of translation termination interference caused by stop codon reprogramming in mammalian cells, researchers from Peking University led by Chen Peng from College of ...

This contribution is part of the special series of Inaugural Articles by members of the National Academy of Sciences elected in 2019. There are many questions related to the origin of life and how we ...

They like it because, to be effective, the daily dose of the poorly stable peptide is a hefty 180 mg. That dose makes Fuzeon one of a few peptide drugs to have been made in near-ton annual quantities.
