Imprinting is yet another process involved in eukaryotic gene regulation; this process involves the silencing of one of the two alleles of a gene for a cell's entire life span. Imprinting affects ...

The research field of 'cellular IRESes' lay dormant for decades, as there was no uniform standard of reliable methods for the clear characterization of these starting points for the ribosome-mediated ...

Genetic switches could play a role in creating complex eukaryotic genetic circuits for programmed cell-free systems or artificial cells.

Only recently has the ribosome—one of the oldest molecular machines in evolutionary terms—been recognized as an active ...

A research team at KAIST has identified the core gene expression networks regulated ... serve as vital secondary messengers ...

Only recently has the ribosome - one of the oldest molecular machines in evolutionary terms - been recognized as an active regulator of gene expression at the level of protein biosynthesis.

Researchers at the Kennedy Institute have developed a new computational framework that allows simultaneous analysis of gene expression and mechanical forces within cells and tissues, uncovering ...

Genes encode proteins and proteins dictate cell function. Therefore ... quite far from transcription promoter sites. Also, eukaryotic gene expression is usually regulated by a combination of ...
