A cell protein previously believed only to provide a scaffolding for DNA has also been shown to directly influence DNA ...
“This is the first detailed study of how and where ORC regulates epigenetics and gene expression in human cells,” said Anindya Dutta, Ph.D., leader of the study and chair of the University of Alabama ...
Professor Alexander Hoffmann and Genhong Cheng from University of California, Los Angeles, jointly with Professor David ...
Turning genes on and off is like flipping a light switch, controlling whether genes in a cell are active. When a gene is ...
Research on the biological basis of addiction has found that the critical epigenetic enzyme histone deacetylase 5 (HDAC5) limits the expression of the gene Scn4b, regulating neuronal activity and ...
Epigenetics is the study of various heritable alterations that control gene expression without changing the DNA sequence. 1 The name epigenetics comes from the Greek prefix “epi”, which means on top ...
Epigenome editing has followed a similar path, in that more recent technological breakthroughs have enabled scientists to apply the discoveries made in previous decades. Epigenome editing performs a ...
Vast swathes of the human genome remain a mystery to science. A new AI from Google DeepMind is helping researchers understand how these stretches of DNA impact the activity of other genes. While the ...
Macrophages are the specialized phagocytic cells that respond to toxic particle depositions to exert inflammatory and clearance responses. These long-lived immune cells engulf foreign substances like ...
In a development that could help protect one of the world's most beloved agricultural commodities, a research team at Penn ...
