AI-Powered Evo-2 Model Generates DNA, Advances Genome Research
Evo-2, an AI model developed by the Arc Institute, Stanford University, and NVIDIA, has been trained on 128,000 genomes, enabling it to generate DNA sequences and predict mutations. It analyses both coding and non-coding DNA, helping researchers understand gene functions and diseases. The model has already demonstrated capabilities in designing CRI...

Genetic Mutations May Directly Influence Epigenetic Clocks and Aging
A study published in Nature Aging suggests a direct link between genetic mutations and epigenetic clocks, reshaping current theories on biological aging. Researchers found that DNA mutations influence methylation patterns, potentially driving the aging process. This challenges the idea that epigenetic changes are merely reflections of aging rather ...

AI Generates Fluorescent Protein That Nature Would Need 500 Million Years to Evolve
A new AI-generated fluorescent protein, esmGFP, has been developed, a process that would have taken nature 500 million years. Scientists used ESM3, an AI model trained on billions of natural protein sequences, to design a functional protein beyond evolutionary constraints. The development is expected to accelerate medical research, drug discovery, ...

Washington Reports Four New Bird Flu Cases in Farmworkers, US Tally Reaches 31
Washington state recently confirmed four new bird flu cases among farmworkers, bringing the national total to 31. The virus, spread widely among animals, has shown no signs of human-to-human transmission yet, according to health experts. Workers reportedly experienced mild symptoms. As flu season approaches, experts warn of potential viral genetic ...

Mpox Vaccines Prequalified by WHO, Shipped to Africa to Contain the Outbreak
The arrival of mpox vaccines in Africa, particularly the Jynneos vaccine from Bavarian Nordic, aims to combat a significant resurgence of the virus, especially in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The World Health Organization has reported approximately 6,000 confirmed cases across 15 African nations, with concerns about transmission dynamics, ...

Last Woolly Mammoths Extinction Mystery: New Genetic Insights Revealed
Four thousand years ago, the last woolly mammoths lived on Wrangel Island, situated off the coast of present-day Siberia. Traditionally, it was believed that their remote location led to inbreeding, which was thought to be the primary cause of their extinction. However, recent research challenges this notion. A study reveals new insights into the m...

COVID-19 Virus’ Link That Potentially Increases Brain Infection Risk Found, Claims Study
A recent study has revealed that SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic, might be using an unexpected method to infect the brain. Researchers found that mutations in the virus' spike protein allow it to enter brain cells through a "back door," a process that might explain the neurological symptoms observed in some COVID-19 pati...
