Researchers at the University of California San Diego have developed a large-scale screening approach that identifies proteins controlling a fundamental step in gene expression known as alternative ...
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) are a type of RNA molecule that do not carry instructions to make proteins. Instead, they influence how other genes are expressed. There are tens of thousands of lncRNAs ...
Researchers say gene switches currently offer limited temporal and spatial precision and can also have adverse effects. Now, a recent study, “Electromagnetic field-inducible in vivo gene switch for ...
A structural analysis using AlphaFold2 reveals that symbiotic rhizobial effectors are modular proteins carrying hidden DNA- ...
Investigators at Weill Cornell Medicine have developed a versatile and non-toxic technology for controlling the activity of any gene in a cell. Such "gene-switch" tools allow scientists to "turn on" ...
What if you could flip a genetic switch to silence a gene, then turn it back on with a simple drug? For researchers, gene-switch tools offer that kind of control—and a new system called Cyclone may ...
This project has reached full capacity for the current term. Please check back next semester for updates. Gene dysregulation is a hallmark of disease, driving pathogenic phenotypes and poor patient ...
