Gene regulation is the process by which cells control the expression of their genes, determining when, where, and to what extent each gene is expressed. It is a fundamental mechanism that allows cells ...

If our genes are so similar, what really makes a eukaryote different from a prokaryote, or a human from E. coli? The answer lies in the difference in gene expression and regulation used. Regulation of ...

The virus early proteins have diverse regulatory functions during virus replication making them potentially excellent drug targets. The only enzyme expressed by HPV is E1, an ATP-dependent helicase ...

Controlling gene expression is essential to growth, development, and sustained life. This requires regulating the spacial, temporal, and developmental expression of genes in a wide diversity of cell ...

Epigenetics is the study of various heritable alterations that control gene expression without changing the DNA sequence. 1 The name epigenetics comes from the Greek prefix “epi”, which means on top ...

Research will focus on the genome-wide identification of microexons to advance the knowledge on gene functions.

KYOTO – An international team of researchers has taken an important step toward understanding how gene expression is controlled across the human genome. A new study has comprehensively analyzed ...

A newly developed mouse model enables real-time visualization of RNA Polymerase II (RNAP2) during DNA transcription, as ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . The Nobel Assembly at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden announced the honor today. Victor R. Ambros, PhD, and Gary ...

A study shows that autism symptom severity, rather than diagnostic category, maps onto distinct brain connectivity and ...

Although HPVs do express some unspliced mRNAs (Figure 2), most HPV mRNAs are the products of constitutive and alternative splicing. Constitutive splicing is where every intron in the primary RNA ...
