Although repetitive elements pervade mammalian genomes, their overall contribution to transcriptional activity is poorly defined. Here, as part of the FANTOM4 project, we report that 6–30% of ...
Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have revealed previously unappreciated roles for the retrotransposon LINE ...
Ever since variants in the gene for TMEM106b were tied to frontotemporal dementia, Alzheimer’s, and other neurodegenerative diseases, this endolysosomal protein has been a head-scratcher for ...
Retrotransposons can be used as markers because their integration creates new joints between genomic DNA and their conserved ends. To detect polymorphisms for retrotransposon insertion, marker systems ...
January 5, 2026) Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have revealed previously unappreciated roles for the ...
Figure 2. Diagrammatic representation of kodikaz therapeutic solutions’ zip-code technology application to various human diseases. The complex interplay between extracellular genetic material and the ...
The recent approval of a CRISPR-Cas9 therapy for sickle cell disease demonstrates that gene editing tools can do a superb job knocking out genes to cure hereditary disease. But it's still not possible ...
The Cer1 GAG protein shows almost no sequence similarity to retroviral GAG proteins, and is much larger. The Priess team used AlphaFold, a powerful AI system developed by DeepMind, to predict the ...
A joint research group team led by Sayuri Tsukahara and Tetsuji Kakutani of the University of Tokyo has clarified a mechanism of how retrotransposons, genetic elements that can "jump around" ...
Inflammasomes are huge, multi-protein complexes inside cells that spark inflammation when they sense danger. Inflammasomes can also sound the alarm when no pathogens are present, contributing to ...
Because retrotransposons are the major component of plant genomes, analysis of the target site selection of retrotransposons is important for understanding the structure and evolution of plant genomes ...
