Rice University researchers created CLASSIC, a platform that builds vast libraries of genetic circuits and links each full ...
The new technique is called CLASSIC, an acronym for “combining long and short range sequencing to investigate genetic ...
A genomic atlas of Nematostella vectensis reveals how primitive animals created multiple cell types millions of years ago, ...
Changes in genes have been linked to the development of different diseases for a while. However, it's not exactly clear what ...
Every cell in a body contains the same genetic sequence, yet each cell expresses only a subset of those genes. These cell-specific gene expression patterns, which ensure that a brain cell is different ...
For stem cells to differentiate into the appropriate cell-type, transcription factors (TFs) must be tailored to highly specific expression patterns of lineage-specific genes. Abnormalities in the ...
Non-coding DNA is essential for both humans and trypanosomes, despite the large evolutionary divergence between these two species.
Researchers are investigating the role of non-coding DNA, or junk DNA, in regulating astrocytes, brain cells involved in ...
