In April 2021, Jamie McGowan was running a routine test. A computational biologist at the Earlham Institute in Norwich, England, McGowan had fed a single-celled organism’s genetic data into a ...
We produce a working hypothesis for the steps by which the canonical genetic code might have been constructed.

A bizarre genetic code found in a microscopic pond organism is rewriting what scientists thought DNA could do
In a shallow pond at Oxford University Parks, surrounded by dog walkers and rowing crews, a single-celled organism has been quietly defying one of biology’s most fundamental rules. A team led by ...
Scientists accidentally discovered a microscopic organism with a genetic code that breaks a rule researchers thought was nearly universal. While testing a new DNA sequencing technique, they examined a ...
Despite awe-inspiring diversity, nearly every lifeform – from bacteria to blue whales – shares the same genetic code. How and when this code came about has been the subject of much scientific ...
Current National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines for germline testing are complex and often miss patients with cancer susceptibility. We evaluated results of universal germline genetic ...
