Recent epigenomic studies have predicted thousands of potential enhancers in the human genome. However, there has not been systematic characterization of target promoters for these potential ...

The AhUBQ4 promoter enables strong and stable gene expression and boosts CRISPR/Cas9 editing efficiency in peanut, outperforming traditional viral promoters like CaMV 35S.

Corn has a highly complex genome, making it a challenge to apply genome-editing techniques to it. Researchers used CRISPR to tinker with the corn genome promoter regions and modify stem cell growth.

Moreover, the presence of RpoD-independent promoter elements is unknown. In this study, we applied RNA-Seq technology for genome-wide identification of TSSs and promoter elements of OY-M phytoplasma.

Illumina Inc. (NASDAQ: ILMN) today unveiled PromoterAI, a new AI algorithm that accurately deciphers pathogenic regulatory genetic variants in the noncoding regions of the human genome. A study ...

Genomatix applied its Next Generation Sequencing analysis pipeline to genome wide open chromatin data as recently published by Boyle et al in "Cell." Ultra fast mapping, sequence clustering and ...

Despite the prevalent view that some 98% of our genome is junk DNA, new research shows that one piece of junk DNA -- the promoter of a virus-based transposon -- plays a critical role in cell ...

Such mutations have recently been discovered in "non-coding" regions of DNA, which comprise about 98.5% of the genome. These regions include promoters and are known as "non-coding" because they ...

Second, the techniques used to change the genome must go through the cell walls of plants; in animals, especially cell lines, it is much simpler to get the components of CRISPR/Cas9 into the cells.” ...

A new study published in PLOS Genetics has identified an extreme mutational hotspot within the genome of Pseudomonas fluorescens, providing unprecedented insight into the relationship between gene ...
