Understanding human gene function in living organisms has long been hampered by fundamental differences between species.
A 14,400-year-old wolf puppy’s last meal is shedding light on the last days of one of the Ice Age’s most iconic megafauna ...
An unusual DNA source shows woolly rhinos did not slowly decline genetically, pointing instead to rapid climate warming.
The work marks the first time an Ice Age animal’s complete genome has been recovered from tissue preserved inside another ...
Genetic disorders occur due to alterations in the primary genetic material—deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)—of an organism.
A mummified wolf pup that died in Siberia roughly 14,400 years ago has yielded a scientific first: a complete woolly ...
The digested meat from the wolf pup’s last meal, which took place 14,400 years ago, contained enough woolly rhino DNA to sequence its entire genome.
More than 14,000 years ago, a wolf pup ate a piece of woolly rhino. Scientists have analyzed the rhino's DNA to figure out ...
Researchers were able to sequence the full genome from the 14,000-year-old chunk of preserved woolly rhinoceros meat.
Researchers from the Center for Paleogenetics have managed to analyze the genome from a 14,400-year-old woolly rhinoceros, ...
Preserved by dry, cool air and darkness, the cheetah mummies are offering scientists DNA insights into a lost population and ...
Scientists first read the human genome, a three-billion-letter biological book, in April 2003. Since then, researchers have steadily advanced the ability to write DNA, moving far beyond single-gene ...
