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

Our scientists study how the organization of our chromatin - the DNA packaging molecules that help organize our DNA - regulate gene expression. They seek to understand how cells modulate gene ...

Understand the fascinating role of short-chain fatty acids in human health. Discover how propionate and butyrate influence our DNA and biological processes.

This important study reveals a new mechanism for gene regulation in neurons by an RNA binding protein called RBM20 previously studied in the heart. The methods used are compelling, including the ...

Gene regulation refers to the mechanisms that act to induce or repress the expression of a gene. These include structural and chemical changes to the genetic material, binding of proteins to ...

Human brains take in sensory data at more than 1 billion bits per second, but only process that information at a measly 10 bits per second, new research has found.

Their results, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, highlight the role of gene expression in the evolution and function of the human brain. Interpreting nature's ...
