Researchers have studied gene expression dynamics during metamorphosis in two species of flies. Published in the Genome ...

Two species of worms, separated by 20 million years of evolution, have been found to activate their genes in nearly identical ...

Investigating how mutations in tumors alter DNA’s 3D structure—and subsequently, regulatory sequences called enhancers—can ...

Even after 20 million years of evolutionary separation, two tiny worm species show astonishingly similar patterns in how they ...

For example, Himalayan rabbits carry the C gene, which is required for the development of pigments in the fur, skin, and eyes, and whose expression is regulated by temperature (Sturtevant, 1913).

Two species of worms have retained remarkably similar patterns in the way they switch their genes on and off despite having ...

Gene expression is the process by which genetic instructions are used to synthesise gene products. Measuring this gene expression is a key element in the study of life sciences. For example ...

Modifications such as polyadenylation, splicing, and capping of the pre-mRNA transcript in eukaryotes can lead to different levels and patterns of gene expression. For example, different splicing ...

The researchers studied gene expression in leukocytes (white blood cells) in a cohort of 14 astronauts, including three women and 11 men, who resided on board the ISS for between 4.5 and 6.5 ...

The study, "Global impact of unproductive splicing on human gene expression levels and traits," was supported by funding from the National Institutes of Health (grants R01GM130738, R01HG011067 ...
