The overexpression of a gene tied to cell division and the structure and function of neurons may prevent and protect against cognitive decline in both mice and humans with Alzheimer's disease (AD), ...
The human genome has to be carefully organized so it will fit inside of the nuclei of cells, while also remaining accessible ...
We know the genes, but not their functions—to resolve this long-standing bottleneck in microbial research, a joint research ...
Sometimes, in genetics, two wrongs do make a right. A research team has recently shown that two harmful genetic variants, ...
No gene acts alone: interacting variants and protein partnerships can worsen, mask or even rescue disease risk, demanding ...
More than 9 out of 10 Alzheimer's cases could be driven by specific variations in a single gene and the protein it produces, ...
In modern functional genomics, understanding how specific genes control cellular behavior requires both targeted intervention and high-resolution analysis. That’s where Perturb-Seq comes in—a method ...
Data from a new study links a pair of duplicated genes to human brain features. The research provides a roadmap for scientists to gain a deeper understanding of brain function and evolution, as well ...
We know the genes, but not their functions." To resolve this long-standing bottleneck in microbial research, a joint research team has proposed a ...
