A research team at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology has successfully combined single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and single-cell mass spectrometry (scMS) analysis on the same plant ...

Sorghum bicolor is a deep-rooted, heat- and drought-tolerant crop that thrives on marginal lands and is increasingly valued ...

Transcriptomics is the study of the transcriptome, which is the complete set of RNA transcripts produced by the genome at a specific time or under particular conditions. It involves the analysis of ...

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 ...

For decades, synthetic biologists have been developing gene circuits that can be transferred into cells for applications such ...

Single cell gene expression studies often rely on single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) alone. While scRNA-seq reveals which genes are turned on, it does not capture protein expression or changes to ...

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 ...

DNA and RNA methylation, initially thought to operate as distinct pathways, have been shown to interact closely, shifting our understanding of gene regulation. A team of researchers from the ...

Jonathan Henninger, an assistant professor of biological sciences, is part of a growing movement in the life sciences exploring how ribonucleic acid, known as RNA, can be harnessed to develop ...

A new database covering over 100 different canine tissues can significantly enhance our understanding of hereditary diseases and provide valuable information for health research in both dogs and ...
