A new study shows that cancer damages its own DNA by pushing key genes to work too hard. Researchers found that the most ...
Changing the binding sites for protein–DNA and protein–chromatin interactions, however, did prevent cluster formation. Therefore, the investigators concluded that proper communication between ...
A multi-institutional team of researchers led by Case Western Reserve University has identified a pattern of clustered genetic changes that appear to encourage growth of colorectal cancer tumors—a ...
University of Toronto (U of T) researchers have found that cancer cells can enhance tumor growth by hijacking enhancer DNA normally used when tissues and organs are formed. The mechanism, called ...
In part 2 of this webinar, Dr. Emily Hodges, assistant professor of biochemistry at Vanderbilt University, will reveal new data that illustrates how the Hodges Lab is utilizing the 6-base genome to ...
KANSAS CITY, MO -- The complex process regulating gene expression is often compared to following a recipe. Miss a genetic ingredient, or add it in the wrong order, and you could have a disaster on ...
The much-heralded Human Genome Project was a huge milestone for science, but most of that genetic blueprint came from one man from Buffalo, N.Y. On Wednesday, May 10, 2023, scientists announced they ...
Google DeepMind’s latest artificial intelligence model is turning the most mysterious stretches of human DNA into readable text, and in the process, it is flagging which tiny edits could tip a cell ...
Long distance haul: Regulatory proteins (gold balls) bind to enhancer regions (light blue) and promoter regions (pink) of DNA to form clusters that enable transcription (purple). Summary Through ...
