Sometimes, in genetics, two wrongs do make a right. A research team has recently shown that two harmful genetic variants, ...

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 team has proposed a cutting-edge research strategy that leverages artificial ...

The UB team that discovered how a gene found in 75% of us protects against neurodegeneration has now found that this same gene enhances immune function as well. The new findings were published in ...

Elizabeth Kellogg, PhD, St. Jude Department of Structural Biology, used cryo-EM to study the evolutionary journey of Fanzor2, a compact eukaryotic genome-editing protein with huge potential. (MEMPHIS, ...

Precision and timing of gene expression is essential for normal biological functions and, when disrupted, can lead to many ...

Researchers have developed a discovery platform to probe the function of genes involved in metabolism -- the sum of all life-sustaining chemical reactions. The investigators used the new platform, ...
