The discovery of a juvenile woolly mammoth named Yuka, found in Siberian permafrost with its skin and muscles intact, has ...

The human genome contains about 20,000 protein-coding genes, but the coding parts of our genes account for only about 2 percent of the entire genome. For the past two decades, scientists have been ...

Researchers from Stockholm University have—for the first time ever—managed to successfully isolate and sequence RNA molecules ...

Profiling noncoding repetitive RNA sequences improves the sensitivity of liquid biopsy diagnostic tests for early stage cancers. As cancer is most treatable in its early stages, developing diagnostic ...

Scientists have successfully sequenced RNA belonging to a 40,000-year-old woolly mammoth. Not only do the findings shed light ...

Researchers have sequenced the oldest RNA ever recovered, taken from a woolly mammoth frozen for nearly 40,000 years. The RNA ...

Scientists examine the mummified remains of a 39,000-year-old mammoth nicknamed Yuka, whose tissue yielded ancient RNA in a ...

A genomic analysis shows that transcription start sites are 35% more mutation-prone than expected, making them one of the ...

Researchers say they have recovered RNA from the remains of a woolly mammoth that lived roughly 39,000 years ago.
