Researchers developed a method that integrates bulk and single-cell data to map how genetic variants influence gene ...

Scientists have now created an encyclopedia of gene function for all known human genes that code for protein. This data uses the most current and reliable data, and it has also been released on a ...

Whole genome duplication followed by massive gene loss has shaped many genomes, including the human genome. Why some gene duplicates are retained while most perish has puzzled scientists for decades.

A gene is a fundamental unit of heredity, consisting of a specific sequence of DNA that encodes the instructions for making a particular protein or set of proteins. Genes are passed down from parents ...

AURORA, Colo. (Oct. 25, 2022) – The overexpression of a gene tied to cell division and the structure and function of neurons may prevent and protect against cognitive decline in both mice and humans ...

Before cells can divide by mitosis, they first need to replicate all of their chromosomes, so that each of the daughter cells can receive a full set of genetic material. Scientists have until now ...

Study of the principles of heredity in microbes, plants and animals. An integrated course in classical and contemporary molecular genetics dealing with topics that include the structure and function ...

In a recent review published in Nature, a group of authors reviewed the progress and challenges in annotating the human genome, including protein-coding genes, isoforms, and non-coding ribonucleic ...

Scientists have revealed how Fanzor2's divergence from bacterial ancestors may make it a useful tool for future genomic engineering endeavors. A revolution in biomedicine is currently underway, driven ...
