Precision and timing of gene expression is essential for normal biological functions and, when disrupted, can lead to many ...

“Expression tells us what cells do, but regulatory DNA tells us where they come from, how they develop, and which germ layer ...

Biologists have discovered a new type of RNA-splicing regulation that helps to determine which protein-coding exons will be included in messenger RNA transcripts. RNA splicing is a cellular process ...

DNA and RNA epigenetics, once thought to be separate, have now been found to work together to fine-tune gene expression. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...

The research represents a major step forward in revealing how the three dimensional form of DNA shapes the way human biology functions. In a major step toward understanding how the physical form of ...

A recent study marks the first reported instance of generative AI designing synthetic molecules that can successfully control gene expression in healthy mammalian cells. As a proof-of-concept, the ...

What keeps our cells the right size? Scientists have long puzzled over this fundamental question, since cells that are too large or too small are linked to many diseases. Until now, the genetic basis ...

A research team has developed a high-throughput multiplexed gene and cell doping analysis (HiMDA) based on gene scissors (CRISPR-Cas). The work is published in the journal Science Advances. Unethical ...
