Researchers at the Max Delbrück Center have developed a new method to discover how DNA controls genes. Their technique, ...

Essentially all cells in an organism's body have the same genetic blueprint, or genome, but the set of genes that are ...

Researchers at the Jackson Laboratory (JAX), the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, and Yale University, have used artificial intelligence (AI) to design thousands of new DNA switches that can ...

Researchers reveal epigenetic memory works like a dimmer switch, enabling more cell types than previously recognized.

A new international study suggests that ancient viral DNA embedded in our genome, which were long dismissed as genetic "junk", may actually play powerful roles in regulating gene expression. Focusing ...

So-called junk DNA was given that unfortunate nickname because its function was so mysterious. These vast regions of the genome do not code for protein and are made up of highly repetitive sequences.

Scientists at the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) have discovered a DNA-based “dimmer switch” that regulates the activity of a critical developmental gene, Cdx2. This work could pave the way ...

This study reveals how gene expression patterns uncover molecular pathways linking comorbidities, enhancing treatment ...

Epigenetics is a rapidly growing field of study that focuses on the heritable changes in gene expression that occur without alterations to the underlying DNA sequence. These changes are caused by ...

DNA Methylation Market OverviewDNA methylation is a biological process in which methyl groups (CH3) are added to the DNA molecule, usually at the cytosine base of a CpG dinucleotide. While this ...
