From improving outcomes in children with brain cancer to lowering the risk of damage to the brainstem in children with central nervous system tumors, a […] Researchers have found that a gene known as AEBP1 may play a central role in the development, severity and potential treatment of liver disease, according […] A team led by a Baylor University researcher has published a breakthrough article that provides a better understanding of the dynamic process by which sunlight-induced […] DNA replication is essential for living organisms to faithfully deliver genetic information from parental cells to daughter cells. Many proteins are assembled on the parental […] Investigators at the University of British Columbia (UBC)/Centre for Molecular Medicine & Therapeutics (CMMT) and BC Children’s Hospital have examined more than 25 years of […] Most organisms have circadian clocks. In mammals, the circadian pacemaker is located in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the brain. The SCN consists of about […] SysGenetiX project (UNIGE/UNIL) aimed to investigate the regulatory elements, as well as the manifold interactions between them and with genes, with the ultimate goal of […] RNA sequencing is a technique used to analyze entire genomes by looking at the expression of their genes. Today, such genome-wide expression analyses are a […] Genes play a role in determining the beauty of a person’s face, but that role varies with the person’s sex, according to a new study […]
