Two promoter regions "face" each other, both of which initiate transcription. This so-called convergent transcription resembles a genomic ghost ride and was long considered an obstacle to gene ...

Researchers have decoded the complete genome of Chionanthus retusus, a widely cultivated ornamental tree known for its ...

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

He introduced information from the UK Biobank, which consists of whole genome sequences and blood plasma protein levels from more than 50,000 participants. The model accurately picked out promoter ...

DNA’s iconic double helix has long been the symbol of life’s blueprint. However, the human genome conceals far more complexity. Among these mysteries are i-motifs, unusual knot-like DNA ...

Good morning. Today, we discuss how one Brown contrarian and cancer researcher wants $50 billion for the NCI, we see a UniQure case study that shows its gene therapy helped reduce seizures, and more.

Chin’s team recently synthesized the complete genome of E. coli bacteria, but that’s small potatoes next to a human genome, which is roughly 700 times larger.

Rather, the answer could lie in the non-coding regions of the genome, particularly in promoters, the parts of the genome that ultimately control whether or not the proteins are actually produced.
