Researchers combined single nucleus RNA-sequencing with GWAS and UK Biobank data to show that an obesity-linked variant in ...

Origin-recognition complex (ORC) plays an unexpectedly broad role in the regulation of human cell gene expression, according to a study in the journal Cell Reports. "This is the first detailed study ...

The effects of disease-associated genetic variants on gene expression and genome accessibility have been analysed together.

Gene expression in eukaryotes encompasses a sequence of coordinated events through which genetic information is transcribed from DNA into RNA and, in the case of protein-coding genes, translated into ...

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, ...

Researchers at Shanxi Agricultural University have mapped the expression of the gibberellin-deactivating gene CsGA2ox2 across ...

Understanding human biology requires more than mapping our genes—we must also understand how gene expression is regulated to guide healthy development, growth, and maintenance of our body systems over ...

Dialing up gene expression Synthetic gene circuits are engineered to include not only the gene of interest, but also a promoter region. At this site, transcription factors and other regulators can ...

Researchers have identified patterns of gene activity associated with severe COVID-19 in children that are shared with other ...

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is associated with more than 1,200 risk genes, raising a fundamental question: Do these diverse genetic changes affect the brain in entirely different ways, or do they ...
