Much of the phenotypic variation that is observed within and between species is the result of differences in gene regulation: specifically when, where and how much the genes are expressed. Given the ...

Researchers reckon it could dramatically accelerate understanding of how DNA influences disease, cancer, and drug discovery.

There are hundreds of cell types in the human body, each with a specific role spelled out in their DNA. In theory, all it ...

Most research in human genetics has historically focused on people of European ancestries—a long-standing bias that may limit the accuracy of scientific predictions for people from other populations.

A protective APOE gene variant is enriched in Super Agers—people over 80 who think like 50‑year‑olds—cutting Alzheimer’s risk ...

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 ...

What started as a love for biology in a high school classroom in Mason, Ohio has led Nour Sayed to pursue her doctorate at Miami. Sayed graduated with a BA in Biology from Miami last August, but ...

This is due to epigenetic components: microRNA, histone and DNA methylation, gene mutations that alter the expression and production of the neurotrophic factor BDNF, which interacts with the receptors ...

For the first time, the tools to rewrite human biology are moving from speculative fiction into regulated clinics and ...
