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

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

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 ...

Constitutive splicing is where every intron in the primary RNA transcript is removed as transcription progresses along the gene. Alternative splicing is where exon or intron skipping can occur.

To help achieve more precise control of gene therapy, engineers have designed a new control circuit that can keep gene expression levels within a target range. The method could be used to deliver ...
