Long interspersed nuclear element-1 (LINE-1 or L1) is the only active, self-copying genetic element in the human ...

Scientists have long thought of DNA as an instruction manual written in the four- chemical bases—A, C, T, and G—that make up the genetic code. The prevailing belief was that by decoding these ...

Alternative splicing exhibits lineage-specific variability, with mammals and birds reaching the highest levels despite conserved intron-rich architectures, while unicellular eukaryotes and prokaryotes ...

Significant advancements in gene silencing and gene editing offer new hope for treating rare disorders. Techniques like RNA ...

Led by biomedical engineer Vadim Backman, the study reveals that DNA’s 3D physical structure holds a “geometric code” — a ...

New findings highlight Telomir-1’s impact on CASP8 and GSTP1, two critical genes that regulate cell death and glutathione-based detoxification pathways often disrupted in cancer. MIAMI, FLORIDA / ...

Standard laboratory tests can fail to detect many disease-causing DNA changes. Now, a novel 3D chromosome mapping method can ...
