To that end, a new study by UB researchers has identified 11 genes that may hold the key to understanding the brain's ...

Humans and chimpanzees share more than 95% of our genome, and yet we are remarkably different. A new study highlights the ...

Researchers hope the AI tool will aid in the development of cell-specific gene therapies to treat diseases such as cancer.

A second example of how chemical environments affect gene expression is the case of supplemental oxygen administration causing blindness in premature infants (Silverman, 2004). In the 1940s ...

Furthermore, the ability of E. coli to switch gene expression on and off under different environmental conditions is an important fundamental example of how cells of all types sense their ...

Epigenetics is the study of various heritable alterations that control gene expression without changing the DNA sequence. 1 The name epigenetics comes from the Greek prefix “epi”, which means on top ...

This important study of regulatory elements and gene expression in the craniofacial region of the fat-tailed dunnart shows that, compared to placental mammals, marsupial craniofacial tissue develops ...

A cell protein previously believed only to provide a scaffolding for DNA has also been shown to directly influence DNA transcription into RNA – the first step of the process by which an organism's ...
