Advances in DNA sequencing have revealed something surprising—not everyone with the same genetic change develops the same ...

DNA's iconic double helix does more than "just" store genetic information. Under certain conditions, it can temporarily fold ...

For quota_Anchor, collinear gene pairs are initially identified by a dynamic programming algorithm analogous to those implemented in DAGchainer and MCScanX. The algorithm then identifies the ...

R-loops are structures that form when a strand of RNA (red) forms a stable structure with double-stranded DNA, causing one strand of the DNA to form a loop. R-loops are associated with gene ...

Mutations are changes in the molecular 'letters' that make up the DNA code, the blueprint for all living cells. Some of these changes can have little effect, but others can lead to diseases, including ...

A team of scientists created a new gene-editing tool that they claim is more accurate than the industry standard, CRISPR. Researchers from the University of Sydney, Australia, developed what is called ...

The new workflow was adapted from an enzymatic DNA tagging technology, DNA-TAG, previously developed in the Devaraj lab. In ...

When the Nanog gene (green region) is inactive, one of the three enhancer regions is spatially far away. When active, the same enhancer region makes close contact, interacting with the other enhancers ...

Gene therapy holds the promise of preventing and curing disease by manipulating gene expression within a patient's cells. However, to be effective, the new gene must make it into a cell's nucleus. The ...
