Turning genes on and off is like flipping a light switch, controlling whether genes in a cell are active. When a gene is ...

Scientists at the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) have discovered a DNA-based “dimmer switch” that regulates the activity of a critical developmental gene, Cdx2. This work could pave the way ...

Inside each cell of the human body are proteins that control which genes are expressed at the right place and time. However, intriguingly, many of the most important proteins involved in gene ...

Turning genes on and off is like flipping a light switch, controlling whether genes in a cell are active. When a gene is ...

A gene-editing tool that can turn genes on and off like a light switch has been developed. Turning a gene on means activating ...

MIT researchers created the first large-scale atlas combining gene expression and regulation in over 3.5 million brain cells.

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 ...

New research is shining a light on one of genetics' enduring puzzles—how the workings of the so-called "selfish gene" could ...

ARTEMIS is the first of two Phase 3 registrational trials for Ixo-vec in wet AMD, evaluating a single administration of ...

In a development that could help protect one of the world's most beloved agricultural commodities, a research team at Penn ...
