Recombinant DNA (rDNA) refers to artificial DNA molecules that are created by combining genetic material from different sources. This technology involves the insertion of DNA fragments from one ...

A recombinant replacement for the ADAMTS13 protein (Adzynma) missing in congenital thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) restored levels and reduced acute TTP events, according to interim trial ...

A model for the evolution of senescence known as "antagonistic pleiotropy" makes the specific prediction that there should be a negative genetic correlation between early- and late-age traits ...

Creating recombinant proteins has become much easier over the past few decades. However, those with the skills to do design such constructs are usually limited to the biochemists who study proteins.

The Institute for Behavioral Genetics has the world's most complete collection of mouse strains that have been engineered to express mutations in nicotinic cholinergic receptor (nAChR) subunit genes.

In the summer of 1974, a group of international researchers published an urgent open letter asking their colleagues to suspend work on a potentially dangerous new technology. The letter was a first in ...
