A virus relies on the host's translation machinery to replicate itself and become infectious. Translation efficiency partially depends ...

While codons (combinations of three nucleotides) may vary in which do what functions, a long-standing rule was that each codon serves one specific purpose. New evidence, however suggests that ...

Scientists have identified a microbe capable of interpreting a single piece of genetic code in two completely different ways.

A research team has developed DeepCodon, a deep learning–based codon optimization tool that significantly improves heterologous protein expression in Escherichia coli while preserving functionally ...

Imagining ourselves in the shoes of the other affords necessary perspective for effective verbal, written, or physical ...

A new study finds that cascaded speech translation systems still deliver better results than speechLLMs, except in a narrow ...

One of the most well-studied cellular responses is how they react during times of stress, such as when the temperature gets ...
