Researchers studied an error mechanism in DNA replication, and noticed that some errors create palindromes that can fold into hairpin structures. The complexity of ...

A gene that helped one species split into two species shows evidence of adapting much faster than other genes in the genome, raising questions about what is driving its rapid evolution. The paper in ...
