Inside each cell of the human body are proteins that control which genes are expressed at the right place and time. However, ...

Scientists have uncovered how a surprisingly structured protein helps disordered molecules regulate gene expression, upending previous ideas in molecular biology. Inside every human cell, proteins ...

In biology textbooks and beyond, the human genome and DNA therein typically are taught in only one dimension. While it can be helpful for learners to begin with the linear presentation of how ...

Drug research: Decoding the structure of nano 'gene ferries' Date: November 27, 2024 Source: Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München Summary: Researchers have investigated how cationic polymers ...

The discoveries could also help scientists working on stem cell therapies, since coaxing a stem cell to become a neuron or heart cell requires shifting it from one genetic program to another — each ...
