Researchers have identified a method to enhance the effectiveness of a promising cancer treatment. They found that modifying a specific gene improves the ability of immune cells to combat cancer for ...

DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the nucleic acid polymer that forms the genetic code for a cell or ... replicating transmembrane protein signal transduction is a gaol of synthetic biology.

Researchers have demonstrated, for the first time in the world using mice, the ability to overcome significant challenges in ...

Researchers are enhancing the best features of AAV capsids and overcoming their limitations to accelerate gene-based therapies.

Bipolar disorder affects 40-50 million people globally, with genetic heritability between 60-80%, and can be triggered by both positive and negative life events, including promotions or new ...

Scientists from a collaboration of Australian research institutions have proposed that editing multiple genetic variants in human embryos could significantly lower the likelihood of developing ...

A research team led by Dr. Tetsuya Muramoto from the Faculty of Science at Toho University has demonstrated the mechanisms by which periodic chemical signal frequencies in cells regulate gene ...

Optogenetic technology was used to manipulate intracellular signal transduction, revealing how periodic cAMP signal frequencies regulate gene expression and cell fate determination.

Comparison of that ancient DNA with modern human DNA showed that the two species had interbred and that people today still carry the genetic fingerprint of that intermixing. Since then ...

Their findings, published in Nature Aging, describe a never-before-seen link between the two most accepted explanations: random genetic mutations and predictable epigenetic modifications.
