Northwestern Medicine scientists have discovered how molecular "traffic controllers" in cells influence aging and cellular ...

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 ...

Gene regulation is the process by which cells control the expression of their genes, determining when, where, and to what extent each gene is expressed. It is a fundamental mechanism that allows cells ...

A research team has identified the core gene expression networks regulated by key proteins that fundamentally drive phenomena such as cancer development, metastasis, tissue differentiation from stem ...

The human genome contains approximately 1,600 types of transcription factors responsible for regulating gene activity across ...

In biology classrooms, we often learn that genes are transcribed into mRNA, which is then translated into proteins—a tidy, linear process. But gene expression in living cells is far more intricate, ...

University of Navarra (Spain) researchers have developed RNACOREX, a new open-source software capable of identifying gene regulation networks with applications in cancer survival analysis.

A newly revealed molecular tug-of-war may have implications for better understanding how a multitude of diseases and ...

Agriculture, from the outset, has been made possible by humans tweaking the genes of plants to make them grow faster, produce ...
