Researchers have unveiled a way to flip genes back on without slicing into the genome, a shift that could make CRISPR far ...

A new CRISPR breakthrough shows scientists can turn genes back on without cutting DNA, by removing chemical tags that act ...

Much of the phenotypic variation that is observed within and between species is the result of differences in gene regulation: specifically when, where and how much the genes are expressed. Given the ...

Researchers at the Jackson Laboratory (JAX), the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, and Yale University, have used artificial intelligence (AI) to design thousands of new DNA switches that can ...

Professor Asaf Hellman and his research team at the Hebrew University-Hadassah Medical School have unveiled new findings in the realm of methylation-directed regulatory networks. Their study sheds ...

PCR-based techniques have transformed how scientists analyze transcripts’ translational applications in cancer and ...

Switches' in our DNA that affect gene activity in cells could be crucial to understanding and possibly treating Alzheimer's ...

Inducible promoters provide remarkable utility when sustained transgene expression compromises plant development or agronomic performance.

DNA can also be demethylated, either through passive or active processes. Passive DNA demethylation occurs when the methylation pattern is not replenished during DNA replication and gradually ...

Estrogen is known as an important hormone, and it can control many functions by regulating the activity of hundreds of genes.
