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 ...

Recombinant protein expression is a cornerstone of modern biotechnology, fueling advances in drug development, molecular ...

The correct functioning of cells relies heavily on the ability to finely control gene expression, a complex process by which ...

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 SCOPE system can capture proteins binding to regions of DNA that control gene expression. The illustration depicts part of the process where a small guide RNA delivers a protein bearing a special ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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, ...

Memories can live as remarkably cogent substances in the brain. It’s the definition of the word engram, which describes the physical content of how a memory is stored. But memories extend beyond the ...
