A new study finds that at least one Archaea has surprisingly flexibility when interpreting genetic code, which goes against a ...

Scientists claim to have created a new operating system for life — a new way of using the genetic code, allowing proteins to be made with properties that have never been seen in the natural world.

For decades, biology has relied on one central assumption: the genetic code is precise. DNA is transcribed into RNA, RNA is ...
