Gene regulation is the process by which cells control the expression of their genes, determining when, where, and to what extent each gene is expressed. It is a fundamental mechanism that allows cells ...

All the cells in an organism have the exact same genetic sequence. What differs across cell types is their epigenetics—meticulously placed chemical tags that influence which genes are expressed in ...

Controlling gene expression is essential to growth, development, and sustained life. This requires regulating the spacial, temporal, and developmental expression of genes in a wide diversity of cell ...

Your skin cells are clearly different from your brain cells even though they both develop in the same person and carry the same genes. They are different because each cell type expresses a particular ...

With a new study in the journal Cell, researchers at Stanford University and Stockholm University have contributed to ...

One cannot make these kinds of statements based on relative measurements." Hwa believes this research will reframe how gene expression and regulation is taught in biology textbooks and classrooms ...

A new study shows that RNA splicing, not just gene expression, holds powerful clues to why some mammals live far longer than ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising mechanism by which a brain enzyme called OTULIN controls the expression of tau, the ...

Andean highlanders adapt to thin air through epigenetic gene tuning, revealing a flexible, long-term path to altitude survival.
