In high-precision bioengineering and synthetic biology, the fine-tuning of gene expression at transcriptional and posttranscriptional levels is essential. This involves a detailed understanding and ...

A multi-omics study identifies causal genes and biological subtypes of long COVID, revealing new therapeutic targets for ...

Scientists from the University of Sheffield have uncovered how to potentially control harmful insect populations by studying a "selfish gene" that manipulates inheritance The new research focuses on ...

The puzzle seems impossible: take a three-billion-letter code and predict what happens if you swap a single letter. The code we’re talking about—the human genome—stores most of its instructions in ...

Researchers have investigated how cationic polymers organize on a molecular level when transporting RNA drugs. LMU researchers have investigated how cationic polymers organize on a molecular level ...

Scientists have sequenced the largest genome of all animals, the lungfish genome. Their data help to explain how the fish-ancestors of today's land vertebrates were able to conquer land. Thirty times ...

Scientists have been alert to genetic drivers of cancer that are embedded in the transcriptome, which consists of DNA’s coding regions. Beyond the transcriptome, in the wider genome, lurk additional ...

Understanding the Functions and Mechanisms of Every Aspect of the Cell Nucleus Now Viewed as Critical The intricate interplay of cellular signaling pathways provides a beehive of biologic activity in ...

For the first time, researchers have decoded all the genes of a person with cancer and found a set of mutations that may have caused the disease or aided its progression. Using cells donated by a ...

If ever there were a candidate for genetic engineering, surely it is the pale, flavor-challenged bird that will adorn millions of American dinner tables Thursday as a ...
