This discovery laid the foundation for understanding the structure and function of genes. Within a gene, there are coding regions called exons, which contain the information for protein synthesis, and ...

Laying the Groundwork: Levene Investigates the Structure of DNA Meanwhile ... made probable the nucleic acid character of the gene... Avery gave us the first text of a new language, or rather ...

The material in this set of articles describes the science surrounding the structure and function of DNA ... organization of DNA into chromosomes, genes, and gene families; and data regarding ...

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) like propionate and butyrate are critical byproducts of dietary fiber digestion. These molecules do more than fuel the body—they directly influence gene expression and ...

A generative AI-based technique can predict thousands of 3D genomic structures in just minutes, enabling researchers to more ...

You will also gain extensive experience in the use of recombinant DNA and genetic engineering technology to study gene structure and function. Our curriculum emphasizes techniques utilized in genomics ...

The team discovered that IPMK binds directly to SRF, altering the three-dimensional structure of the SRF protein. This interaction facilitates the transcriptional activity of various genes through ...

The SYNGAP1 gene, which supports the production of a protein called SynGAP (Synaptic Ras GTPase-Activating Protein), is known ...

In human cells, only a small proportion of the information written in genes is used to produce proteins. How does the cell select this information? A large molecular machine called the spliceosome ...

They found that while our genes code for almost all ... Glial cells perform most of the other functions, such as insulating the wires, supporting the structure and clearing out debris.

New research has investigated the mechanism by which bivalency functions to poise genes for expression during cell differentiation, providing insight into a long-standing paradigm in the regulation of ...
