In a new study published in Science, a Belgian research team explores how genetic switches controlling gene activity define ...

Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have linked genetic variants to neuropsychiatric disorders, but their regulatory ...

In 2019 an international team of researchers identified 109 genes that were associated in different combinations with eight ...

The turning on of this single gene results in an apparent freak of nature. Mice whose agouti gene is "on" are also more likely to suffer from diabetes and cancer as adults. The implications of ...

Many studies have used single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to infer gene regulatory networks (GRNs), which are crucial for ...

Gene regulation in our cells—the decision on which proteins are produced for the various processes of the cell—is strictly ...

A study reveals DNA and RNA epigenetics work together as a complementary system for precise gene regulation, crucial for cell ...

Researchers uncover key mechanisms in gene regulation that may lead to better design of RNA-based medicines.

John Bertram Reinitz, a professor in the Departments of Statistics, Ecology and Evolution, Molecular Genetics & Cell Biology ...

These two mechanisms seemed to function separately, each playing its own role in distinct stages of the gene regulation process. Perhaps that was a mistake. In a publication in the journal Cell ...

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

The course explores gene regulation in eukaryotes from nuclear organisation to cytosolic control, with a focus on animals and humans. The molecular mechanisms of transcription within a chromatin ...
