A new study led by researchers at UTHealth Houston investigated both gene expression and regulation at single cell levels to ...

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 ...

Precision and timing of gene expression is essential for normal biological functions and, when disrupted, can lead to many ...

The process of “epigenetic memory” in nerve cells plays a key role in learning ability, memory function, and healthy brain ...

The human genome has to be carefully organized so it will fit inside of the nuclei of cells, while also remaining accessible ...

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 ...

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, ...

New research has investigated the mechanism by which bivalency functions to poise genes for expression during cell differentiation, providing insight into a long-standing paradigm in the regulation of ...

Researchers used single-nucleus multiomics to map gene expression and regulation across three brain regions in sporadic early ...

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

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 ...
