What do your genes have to do with growing old? Quite a lot. But is it due to the actual DNA, or the way those genes are expressed? KPBS sci-tech reporter Thomas Fudge has more on new research that ...
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 ...
Researchers discover a protein that connects GLP-1 drugs to long-term, broad genomic responses that can promote pancreatic ...
Using genomic and transcriptional data has greatly improved the understanding of multiple aspects of human physiology. A new paper in PNAS reports on molecular-level associations of co-occurring ...
Erica Periandri and Gabor Egervari, from Washington University in St. Louis, led a study to explore how alcohol exposure in ...
In back-to-back studies published in Nature, researchers from Purdue University and Columbia University report a naturally ...
What if you could flip a genetic switch to silence a gene, then turn it back on with a simple drug? For researchers, gene-switch tools offer that kind of control—and a new system called Cyclone may ...
Study shows GM gene-edited rice is not “substantially equivalent” to the parental non-edited rice. Report: Claire Robinson and Prof Michael Antoniou ...
