Zymo’s Quick DNA/RNA Viral MagBead Kit was automated using Analytik Jena’s Cybio FeliX pipetting robot. The CyBio FeliX configuration, optimized for nucleic acid (NA) extraction, offers a convenient ...

RNA is the molecule that reads the genetic information stored in DNA. It's critical for the proper functioning of cells, and in a new study published in Nature Communications, University of California ...

Across all domains of life, immune defenses foil invading viruses by making it impossible for the viruses to replicate. Most known CRISPR systems target invading pathogens' DNA and chop it up to ...

Using genomics, evolutionary biologists test several hypotheses on the origin of viruses. New evidence suggests they may have emerged more times than previously thought. Corroborating the virus-first ...

Learn how a newly discovered virus disrupts its host’s nucleus in ways that echo how complex cells may have formed billions ...

Scientists in Switzerland have cracked open a century-old viral mystery by decoding the genome of the 1918 influenza virus from a preserved Zurich patient. This ancient RNA revealed that the virus had ...
