Researchers are investigating the role of non-coding DNA, or junk DNA, in regulating astrocytes, brain cells involved in ...
A multi-institutional team of researchers led by Case Western Reserve University has identified a pattern of clustered genetic changes that appear to encourage growth of colorectal cancer tumors—a ...
Switches' in our DNA that affect gene activity in cells could be crucial to understanding and possibly treating Alzheimer's ...
A tiny percentage of our DNA—around 2%—contains 20,000-odd genes. The remaining 98%—long known as the non-coding genome, or so-called 'junk' DNA—includes many of the "switches" that control when and ...
When most of us think of DNA, we have a vague idea it's made up of genes that give us our physical features, our behavioral quirks, and keep our cells and organs running. But only a tiny percentage of ...
In part 2 of this webinar, Dr. Emily Hodges, assistant professor of biochemistry at Vanderbilt University, will reveal new data that illustrates how the Hodges Lab is utilizing the 6-base genome to ...
