At first glance, plants may seem passive – but beneath their stillness lies a world of complexity and constant activity.
"RUBY"—a cost-effective innovation designed to track gene activity—is proving valuable across a range of fields. It all ...
Over the past few decades, growing evidence has challenged the belief that inheritance is governed solely by DNA sequences.
A gene-editing tool that can turn genes on and off like a light switch has been developed. Turning a gene on means activating ...
Most people recognize Alzheimer's from its devastating symptoms such as memory loss, while new drugs target pathological aspects of disease manifestations, such as plaques of amyloid proteins. Now a ...
A figure from the paper illustates a key finding of "compromised compartmentalization": chromatin that was locking genes down in health became more open in Alzheimer's, while chromatin that was open ...
ABSTRACT: The common vampire bat, Desmodus rotundus, feeds mainly on the blood of mammals and plays a significant role in the life cycle of rabies; this species wreaks havoc on livestock and can ...

Single cell gene expression studies often rely on single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) alone. While scRNA-seq reveals which genes are turned on, it does not capture protein expression or changes to ...
The human genome is chock full of what scientists once considered "junk DNA." This DNA is actually something called transposable elements, or TEs. These are repetitive sequences found in the genome ...
