A new CRISPR approach can control genes without cutting DNA, opening a safer path for treating genetic diseases. A newly ...

Abstract: Experimental genomics involves a series of techniques and methodologies aimed at analysing the organization and behaviour of genes and genomes. Microarrays have a large number of nucleic ...

With a new study in the journal Cell, researchers at Stanford University and Stockholm University have contributed to increased knowledge about gene regulation in human cells. How genes are turned on ...

Discover how scientists are harnessing the power of CRISPR to precisely edit DNA, revolutionizing medicine and ethics as they rewrite the very code of life. Pixabay, PublicDomainPictures CRISPR ...

Objective: Paternal high-fat diet (HFD) has detrimental effects on offspring. However, the extent of comprehensive damage and the underlying mechanisms associated with sustained multigenerational HFD ...

Is it the invasion of the genome snatchers? Just in case the idea of aliens walking around in human skin suits wasn’t frightening enough. An outlandish study asserts that aliens might have abducted us ...

Essentially all cells in an organism’s body have the same genetic blueprint, or genome, but the set of genes that are actively expressed at any given time in a cell determines what type of cell it ...

The human genome is chock full of what scientists once considered "junk DNA." This DNA is actually something called transposable elements, or TEs. These are repetitive sequences found in the genome ...

A new study has revealed that "junk DNA" descended from ancient viruses could play a key role in controlling genes. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission.
