A new study led by researchers at UTHealth Houston investigated both gene expression and regulation at single cell levels to ...

Using genomic and transcriptional data has greatly improved the understanding of multiple aspects of human physiology. A new paper in PNAS reports on molecular-level associations of co-occurring ...

Precision and timing of gene expression is essential for normal biological functions and, when disrupted, can lead to many ...

Since the publication of the Human Genome Project, researchers have expanded the field of genomics to probe deeper into the underpinnings of human biology and disease, including studies of the body’s ...

For stem cells to differentiate into the appropriate cell-type, transcription factors (TFs) must be tailored to highly specific expression patterns of lineage-specific genes. Abnormalities in the ...

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

Traditionally, cancer diagnosis and prognosis rely heavily on histopathological examination, where tissue morphology is evaluated under the microscope. However, the molecular ...

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

Inducible promoters provide remarkable utility when sustained transgene expression compromises plant development or agronomic performance. In this study, four different plant heat shock protein (HSP) ...

Scientists studying Alzheimer’s in African Americans have uncovered a striking genetic clue that may cut across racial lines. In brain tissue from more than 200 donors, the gene ADAMTS2 was ...
