Researchers at Karolinska Institutet and Uppsala University have developed a powerful new technique to better understand how ...

The influenza virus manipulates the body's gene regulation system to accelerate its own spread, according to researchers at the University of Gothenburg.

Imprinting is yet another process involved in eukaryotic gene regulation; this process involves the silencing of one of the two alleles of a gene for a cell's entire life span. Imprinting affects ...

Gene regulation refers to the mechanisms that act to induce or repress the expression of a gene. These include structural and chemical changes to the genetic material, binding of proteins to ...

Exposure to air pollution–derived ultrafine particles alters gene transcription by epigenetic mechanisms, a new study shows.

Constitutive splicing is where every intron in the primary RNA transcript is removed as transcription progresses along the gene. Alternative splicing is where exon or intron skipping can occur.
