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

As we age, we don't recover from injury or illness like we did when we were young. But new research from UCSF has found gene ...

A new CRISPR breakthrough shows scientists can turn genes back on without cutting DNA, by removing chemical tags that act ...

Much of the phenotypic variation that is observed within and between species is the result of differences in gene regulation: specifically when, where and how much the genes are expressed. Given the ...

Researchers at the Jackson Laboratory (JAX), the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, and Yale University, have used artificial intelligence (AI) to design thousands of new DNA switches that can ...

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

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), with collaborators from the Institute of Mathematical Sciences (IMSc), ...

Switches' in our DNA that affect gene activity in cells could be crucial to understanding and possibly treating Alzheimer's ...

DNA can also be demethylated, either through passive or active processes. Passive DNA demethylation occurs when the methylation pattern is not replenished during DNA replication and gradually ...
