A region of DNA that codes for a protein, often referred to as a gene, is the fundamental unit of heredity responsible for specific traits and functions within an organism. This intricate segment of ...

A collaborative study by scientists at the University of California, Riverside, and University of Southern California reports ...

When a gene is expressed, its DNA sequence is transcribed into a molecule known as RNA. Then the cell processes and edits ...

This study presents a valuable tool named TSvelo, a computational framework for RNA velocity inference that models transcriptional regulation and gene-specific splicing. The evidence supporting the ...

Researchers around the world are studying how the human brain achieves its extraordinary complexity. A team at the Central ...

Studying T cells, the immune cells most responsible for responding to infections and cancers, just received a significant ...

Cornell (NY, USA) researchers have found that a new DNA sequencing technology can be used to study how transposons move ...

Life's instructions are written in DNA, but it is the enzyme RNA polymerase II (Pol II) that reads the script, transcribing ...

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

Pyrrolysine is an important component of methyltransferase enzymes, which the archaea use to metabolize methylamine in the environment. “The need for that metabolism and availability of the machinery ...
