Researchers have studied gene expression dynamics during metamorphosis in two species of flies. Published in the Genome ...

This valuable manuscript investigates the localisation of nutrient receptors in bloodstream stage trypanosomes, with implications for both nutrient uptake and immune evasion. Results after direct ...

The duration of expression of the gene Cdx2 is tightly regulated by a newly identified DNA sequence element called an “attenuator.” ...

The mRNA metabolism passively shapes the levels of an mRNA modification called m6A within a steady-state cell and upon stress.

Scientists identified 473 human genes that act as genetic “on/off switches,” shaping disease risk through tissue-specific or ...

Gene expression is the generation of a functional gene product from the information encoded by a gene, through the processes of transcription and translation. Gene products are often proteins ...

Investigating how mutations in tumors alter DNA’s 3D structure—and subsequently, regulatory sequences called enhancers—can ...

The comprehensive molecular profiling revealed changes in gene expression and regulation in neuronal and non-neuronal cells that could help scientists to understand the complex underpinnings of PTSD.

Deleting a gene called PTEN in certain brain cells disrupts the brain’s fear circuitry and triggers anxiety-like behavior in ...

Previous studies have linked disease-related alterations of the gut microbiome to changes in brain gene expression, but most of these studies were conducted in adults, the researchers said.
