Much of the phenotypic variation that is observed within and between species is the result of differences in gene regulation: specifically when, where and how much the genes are expressed. Given the ...
Turning genes on and off is like flipping a light switch, controlling whether genes in a cell are active. When a gene is ...
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 ...
This valuable study analyzes aging-related chromatin changes through the lens of intra-chromosomal gene correlation length, which is a novel computational metric that captures spatial correlations in ...
Poplar tree research identified 102 WRKY genes linked to cadmium resistance. Cd stress activated 83 of these, with WRKY95 ...
Most people recognize Alzheimer's from its devastating symptoms such as memory loss, while new drugs target pathological aspects of disease manifestations, such as plaques of amyloid proteins. Now a ...
