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 ...

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 ...

A research team has identified the core gene expression networks regulated by key proteins that fundamentally drive phenomena such as cancer development, metastasis, tissue differentiation from stem ...

Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have revealed previously unappreciated roles for the retrotransposon LINE-1 in shaping the cancer genome structure and regulation.

Epigenetics plays a critical role in human health by regulating gene expression without the direct modification of DNA sequence. Aberrant epigenetic modifications mediated by changes in DNA and ...

This study presents SynaptoGen, a differentiable extension of connectome models that links gene expression, protein-protein interaction probabilities, synaptic multiplicity, and synaptic weights, and ...

The human genome contains approximately 1,600 types of transcription factors responsible for regulating gene activity across more than 400 tissue and cell types. Chromatin immunoprecipitation ...

Researchers describe minimal versatile genetic perturbation technology (mvGPT). Capable of precisely editing genes, activating gene expression and repressing genes all at the same time, the technology ...
