Life runs on instructions you never see. Every cell reads DNA, turns that message into RNA, and then builds proteins that ...
Genetic ancestry plays a key role in determining the behavior of head and neck tumors and may help explain why African-American patients survive for half as long as their counterparts of European ...
New research from the University of St Andrews has discovered a crucial piece in the puzzle of how all animals with a ...
DNA can be thought of as a vast library that stores all genetic information. Cells do not use this information all at once. Instead, they copy only the necessary parts into RNA, which is then used to ...
Scientists at IOCB Prague are uncovering new details of gene transcription. They have identified a previously unknown ...
A duplicated gene evolved into a switch that determines sex in frogs, revealing how evolution can safely reshape critical ...
Ancestry-specific biomarkers, such as POLB, could reshape diagnostic and prognostic approaches in head and neck cancer. New ...
In 1933, geneticist Thomas Hunt Morgan won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for demonstrating that genes exist on chromosomes, which are passed down from parent to offspring. Ninety-one years ...
Numerous genetic studies have identified many risk variants for type 2 diabetes (T2D)—but which genes and proteins are ...
Baylor College of Medicine researchers are part of a collaborative research group with AstraZeneca and Memorial Sloan ...
At the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Marvin Collins ’22, a bioengineering student, was balancing their Stanford classes from home in Alabama while also helping bioengineering professor ...
