DNA phosphorothioate modification is a distinctive epigenetic alteration in which a non‐bridging oxygen atom within the DNA sugar-phosphate backbone is replaced by ...

A UCLA-led study has provided an unprecedented look at how gene regulation evolves during human brain development, showing how the 3D structure of chromatin - DNA and proteins - plays a critical role.

A new study has created a map of DNA modification in two regions of the brain critical to learning, memory and emotional regulation. The map offers a benchmark for ensuring stem cell-based models ...

The Human Genome Project changed everything. A map of the entire human sequence of DNA was the starting point for an enormous number of discoveries, from disease genes to how humans evolved. But DNA ...

DNA is often seen as the blueprint of life—carrying the code to govern the development and traits of an organism—but “there are things beyond the DNA sequence,” says Xiaoqi Feng, a plant geneticist at ...

Researchers in Basel have created SEED/Harvest, a new CRISPR-based technique that tags proteins without leaving any genetic “scars.” By blending two powerful methods, it allows scientists to study ...

LMU molecular biologist Gunnar Schotta has investigated which mechanisms prevent endogenous retroviruses from becoming overly active. Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) have established themselves in the ...

Modifi Biosciences announced today that the journal Science has published a critical study validating the company's novel oncology platform based on new classes of molecules that exploit ...
