The parasite that causes malaria requires precise control of gene expression to progress through the various stages of its ...

Scientists employ deep learning to analyze and compare gene regulation across various cell types in human and chicken brains.

Epigenetic inhibitors as a promising new antimalarial intervention strategy? A new study identifies an inhibitor of gene ...

Biologists have discovered a new type of RNA-splicing regulation that helps to determine which protein-coding exons will be included in messenger RNA transcripts.

"We were delighted to discover not only important details about the mechanisms of HBV gene regulation, but also a promising ...

Malaria remains one of the greatest global health threats. In 2022, there were an estimated 247 million infections and over ...

Humans have appreciated the beauty of flowers for centuries. Yet, flowers aren't just aesthetically pleasing. They also play ...

RNA splicing is a cellular process that is critical for gene expression. After genes are copied from DNA into messenger RNA, portions of the RNA that don't code for proteins, called introns, are cut ...

Gene regulation refers to the mechanisms that act to induce or repress the expression of a gene. These include structural and chemical changes to the genetic material, binding of proteins to ...

Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have linked genetic variants to neuropsychiatric disorders, but their regulatory roles in non-coding regions remain largely unclear. Using the LUHMES neuronal ...

In their effort to answer a decades-old biological question about how the hepatitis B virus (HBV) is able to establish ...
