The function of non-coding RNA in the cell has long been a mystery to researchers. Unlike coding RNA, non-coding RNA does not produce proteins -- yet it exists in large quantities. A research team has ...
Scientists have investigated how genes are accessed if so tightly packed away? How can these molecules be broken apart to promote gene expression? Specific nuclear proteins act as a glue to pack ...
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 ...
A newly developed mouse model enables real-time visualization of RNA Polymerase II (RNAP2) during DNA transcription, as ...
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) are a type of RNA molecule that do not carry instructions to make proteins. Instead, they influence how other genes are expressed. There are tens of thousands of lncRNAs ...
Your skin cells are clearly different from your brain cells even though they both develop in the same person and carry the same genes. They are different because each cell type expresses a particular ...
The goal of gene therapy for patients with hemophilia A is to safely impart long-term stable factor VIII expression that predictably ameliorates bleeding with the use of the lowest possible vector ...
Gene expression leading to alterations in the DNA caused by asbestos exposure may explain the development of Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM), a rare and aggressive cancer. By analyzing public RNA ...
Aging being the biggest risk factor for neurodegenerative disease, scientists urgently want to know what exactly goes wrong in old cells. In the December 15 Science Advances, researchers led by Samuel ...
