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

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 ...

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

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

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 ...

In this Tech Blast episode supported by Thermo Fisher Scientific (MA, USA), Associate Product Manager Jon Flasher talks us through gene expression analysis, some of its challenges and the tools ...

Genetics is the study of genes and how they influence characteristics and health. Through a variety of technological methods, environmental factors, and lifestyle choices, it is possible to alter some ...

An important objective of medical research is to identify the underlying molecular mechanisms of human brain health and diseases. This objective has been predominantly achieved through observational ...

HOUSTON, NOVEMBER 24, 2025 ― Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have shown that DNA inflexibility, or rigidity, inside ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising mechanism by which a brain enzyme called OTULIN controls the expression of tau, the ...

Genes encode proteins and proteins dictate cell function. Therefore, the thousands of genes expressed in a particular cell determine what that cell can do. Moreover, each step in the flow of ...
