Researchers have unveiled a way to flip genes back on without slicing into the genome, a shift that could make CRISPR far ...

A new CRISPR breakthrough shows scientists can turn genes back on without cutting DNA, by removing chemical tags that act ...

Greenland sharks possess a DNA repair mechanism that maintains vision over centuries, preventing retinal degeneration despite ...

Professor Asaf Hellman and his research team at the Hebrew University-Hadassah Medical School have unveiled new findings in the realm of methylation-directed regulatory networks. Their study sheds ...

Results of recent studies involving valproic acid, used for decades as an anti-convulsant drug, show that it can interact with the conformation of DNA and regulate gene expression. These are some of ...

DNA has been known to form loops, and these loops have been thought to influence gene expression, recombination, and DNA repair. But according to a new study, DNA loops are rare and fleeting.

Estrogen is known as an important hormone, and it can control many functions by regulating the activity of hundreds of genes.

With a new study in the journal Cell, researchers at Stanford University and Stockholm University have contributed to increased knowledge about gene regulation in human cells. How genes are turned on ...

Scientists have developed a highly efficient method to address a major challenge in biology -- identifying the genetic 'switches' that regulate gene expression. St. Jude Children's Research Hospital ...

A common error people make when thinking about genetics is that DNA is deterministic in a robotic way. But how could it be when people often experience doubt ...
