Identified ART after a 21-hour autonomous database search

Anthropic's Claude spent about 21 hours searching more than 200,000 reverse transcriptases, enzymes that copy RNA into DNA. It flagged one sitting beside a repeating DNA array that resembles CRISPR's layout. Lab tests showed the array produces short RNAs, but the partner enzyme, named ART, has no known function.
