All the cells in an organism have the exact same genetic sequence. What differs across cell types is their ...

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 ...

How is it that your body with all of its specialized organs developed from a single cell? Scientists are exploring how gene expression patterns and their timing regulate cell differentiation. Today, ...

With a new study in the journal Cell, researchers at Stanford University and Stockholm University have contributed to ...

Gene regulation is the process by which cells control the expression of their genes, determining when, where, and to what extent each gene is expressed. It is a fundamental mechanism that allows cells ...

Epigenetics, the dynamic regulation of genetic expression, involves complex molecular mechanisms. While the process of gene silencing by methylating the H3K27 position in histones is understood, not ...

Genoa (Italy)/Grenoble (France) – 2nd July, 2024 - The correct functioning of cells relies heavily on the ability to finely control gene expression, a complex process by which the information ...

The correct functioning of cells relies heavily on the ability to finely control gene expression, a complex process by which the information contained in DNA is copied into RNA to eventually give rise ...

Gene expression analysis is undergoing a profound transformation, driven by the rapid evolution of advanced omics technologies. From single-cell ...

New research suggests that alternative splicing may have an even greater influence on biology than just by creating new protein isoforms. The study shows that the biggest impact of alternative ...

Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have shown that DNA inflexibility, or rigidity, inside the ...
