A study exposing human skin cells to 5G frequencies found no harmful changes in gene expression or DNA methylation.

In higher eukaryotes, a vast variety of RNAs is transcribed from genomic DNAs. The transcribed RNAs are subjected to RNA processing steps, such as splicing, ...

Researchers have discovered how a parasite that causes malaria when transmitted through a mosquito bite can hide from the body's immune system, sometimes for years. It turns out that the parasite, ...

Two new studies found that a small, missing piece of DNA located next to a specific protein resulted in orange fur coloration ...

One of the most commonly used gene-delivery methods relies on engineered viruses to insert stretches of genetic material into ...

These results provided a novel molecular characterization of this important group of human cell lines and their relationships to tumours in vivo. We studied gene expression in the 60 cell lines ...

A study published today in the journal Cell marks the first reported instance of generative AI designing synthetic molecules that can successfully control gene expression in healthy mammalian cells.

The human brain is known to contain a wide range of cell types, which have different roles and functions. The processes via ...
