In a new study, stem cell scientists at the Lund University, Sweden, explore the role of non-coding regions of the genome—previously deemed to be functionless “junk” DNA—and find humans and ...
According to a new study, extra DNA scooped up and copied alongside cancer-causing genes helps keep tumors going -- elements that could represent new drug targets for brain tumors and other cancers ...
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are RNA transcripts longer than 200 nucleotides that do not code for proteins. Once considered mere transcriptional noise, lncRNAs are now known to play vital roles in ...
There was a time not long ago when biomedical research and industry were almost exclusively focused on proteins and the genes that encode them. Once termed “junk”, the non-coding regions of the genome ...
One might think that the primary cause of most genetically linked diseases comes from mutations in coding DNA -- alterations in coding regions of the genome that can lead directly to changes in the ...
The puzzle seems impossible: take a three-billion-letter code and predict what happens if you swap a single letter. The code we’re talking about—the human genome—stores most of its instructions in ...
Vast swathes of the human genome remain a mystery to science. A new AI from Google DeepMind is helping researchers understand how these stretches of DNA impact the activity of other genes. While the ...
This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract The activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) is required for somatic hypermutation (SHM) and class-switch recombination of Ig genes. It has ...
In Eukarya, RNA Polymerase II (Pol II) transcription is a highly regulated process, which is responsible for the transcription of all protein encoding genes. While the catalytic core of the Pol II ...
