The mice were spliced with genes from a single-celled microbe called a choanoflagellate. Though not an animal itself, the ...

Could genes from the dawn of life hold the key to a stem cell revolution? A groundbreaking experiment could make it reality.

In a pioneering study, scientists have successfully created a living mouse from stem cells derived from genes that are older ...

The team used these newly generated stem cells to help form a living, breathing mouse from a developing embryo.

"Choanoflagellates don't have stem cells, they're single-celled organisms, but they have these genes, likely to control basic cellular processes that multicellular animals probably later ...

New research unveils the evolutionary origins of stem cells through a groundbreaking experiment that successfully created a ...

Scientists have engineered a hybrid mouse with a gene that predates all animal life. The team replaced a single gene in the ...

Scientists used genes from unicellular protists to reprogram mouse cells into stem cells. These cells developed into a living ...

Genes make up the blueprints and outline the process of building every living organism. To ensure that the right genes are ...

Scientists at Queen Mary University of London and the University of Hong Kong have created a mouse with substituted genes ...
