The overexpression of a gene tied to cell division and the structure and function of neurons may prevent and protect against cognitive decline in both mice and humans with Alzheimer's disease (AD), ...

Weill Cornell Medicine researchers have found that temporarily disabling a protein complex that organizes DNA into loops ...

In a new study published in Genes & Development, research led by Dr. Lila Allou at the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) in London and Professor Stefan Mundlos at the Max Planck Institute for ...

Before cells can divide by mitosis, they first need to replicate all of their chromosomes, so that each of the daughter cells can receive a full set of genetic material. Scientists have until now ...

Chromosomes are thread-like structures comprising DNA that are present inside the nucleus of every cell in the body. Specific segments of DNA are called genes. Every chromosome contains many genes, ...

Scientists have identified a new RNA molecule that may play a key role in improving survival in cancer patients.

Single-cell analysis fails to find a functional link between the organization of chromatin domain organization and gene activity.

This important study advances a new computational approach to measure and visualize gene expression specificity across different tissues and cell types. The framework is potentially helpful for ...

In heart failure, the heart can no longer supply the body with enough blood. The condition often develops over many years, ...

Plants rely on gene regulators to grow, flower, reproduce, and survive drought, disease, and other environmental pressures.
