Cells of a multicellular organism are functionally heterogeneous owing to the differential expression of genes. Historically, differential gene expression had been thought to involve the genetic ...

Precise modulation of transcription plays a vital role in both development and the response of all higher organisms to their environment. Temporal activation or repression of specific genes is ...

Two teams of researchers have developed a cell reprogramming technology that converts rogue disease-causing T cells from our immune system into protective Tregcells. These cells help ensure that the ...
