Genetic code expansion, where noncanonical amino acids (ncAAs) are added to the central dogma, has provided foundational tools to study and manipulate biological processes 1,2. Pioneering labs have ...

Bacterial second messenger networks transmit environmental information through both amplitude and frequency modulation strategies. However, the mechanisms by which cells decode frequency-encoded ...

As many as 40% of Americans are obese, putting them at an increased risk for high blood pressure, diabetes, stroke, heart disease and certain cancers, according to the CDC. New research from the ...

The genetics of autism has long been one of the most intricate puzzles in neurodevelopmental science. Today, the pieces are coming together more rapidly than ever before. Landmark projects such as the ...
