Spinal translational control mechanisms regulate gene expression and nociceptive circuit sensitization during the chronic phase of neuropathic pain.

Not all parts of our genetic code are equal, even when they appear to say the same thing. Scientists have discovered that ...

A study published 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.

Scientists at the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) have discovered a DNA-based “dimmer switch” that regulates the activity of a critical developmental gene, Cdx2. This work could pave the way ...

It could be simply to control gene expression." The study, "Global impact of unproductive splicing on human gene expression levels and traits," was supported by funding from the National Institutes of ...

Researchers at Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH) have built a platform that steers cell behavior using ...

Cross-species research shows that RNA splicing patterns, not just gene activity, track maximum lifespan in mammals, revealing ...

Our circadian clocks play a crucial role in our health and well-being, keeping our 24-hour biological cycles in sync with light and dark exposure. Disruptions in the rhythms of these clocks, as with ...

Alternative splicing is a genetic process where different segments of genes are removed, and the remaining pieces are joined together during transcription to messenger RNA (mRNA). This mechanism ...
