Recent technological advances are fueling the development of cutting-edge technologies that can monitor and control ...

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a condition affecting the brain's development and often affects the ability of a person to ...

In higher eukaryotes, a vast variety of RNAs is transcribed from genomic DNAs. The transcribed RNAs are subjected to RNA processing steps, such as splicing, ...

An elegant screening strategy unveils a molecular actor that connects widespread changes in mRNA processing with a nutrient-sensing protein modification.

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 ...

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.

“We’re interested in how cells regulate expression in space and time,” Wu stated ... and enhancer-promoter interactions that may be analogous to translational regulation. Wu then shifted to a ...

In a follow-up study, they later found that expression levels of the PHGDH gene directly correlated with changes in ... Paper: “Transcriptional regulation by PHGDH drives amyloid pathology in ...

A research team led by Prof. Li Yunhai from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology (IGDB) of the Chinese Academy ...

Comb jellies "could repurpose [their] genetic toolkit in different ways like a Swiss knife," said the researchers.
