A new study led by researchers at UTHealth Houston investigated both gene expression and regulation at single cell levels to ...

Researchers have created the most comprehensive map to date of DNA elements that regulate gene activity, nearly tripling the ...

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

A research team has identified the core gene expression networks regulated by key proteins that fundamentally drive phenomena such as cancer development, metastasis, tissue differentiation from stem ...

A new international study suggests that ancient viral DNA embedded in our genome, which were long dismissed as genetic "junk," may actually play powerful roles in regulating gene expression. Focusing ...

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 ...

Epigenome editing has followed a similar path, in that more recent technological breakthroughs have enabled scientists to apply the discoveries made in previous decades. Epigenome editing performs a ...

Vast swathes of the human genome remain a mystery to science. A new AI from Google DeepMind is helping researchers understand how these stretches of DNA impact the activity of other genes. While the ...

Vitamin C is a key nutritional component in fruits, yet its concentration often changes dramatically as fruits develop.
