A study has traced thousands of conserved regulatory elements back 300 million years, revealing deep principles of plant ...

An international team of researchers has taken an important step toward understanding how gene expression is controlled across the human genome. The research is published in the journal Nature. The ...

Genome editing-based therapies typically aim to treat disease by correcting underlying genetic mutations in patient's cells.

That superhero is a gene called TP53, and for decades scientists have known it as the “guardian of the genome.” In a healthy cell, TP53 acts like both a brake and an emergency stop button. When DNA ...

Maize serves as a vital model species for advancing our understanding of plant biology, yet many mysteries remain about the ...

An estimated 170,000 Australians were diagnosed with cancer in 2025. Many people know the causes of cancer are partly genetic. But how do your genes, which contribute so much of what makes you you, ...

A recent study examines why Alzheimer's presents and progresses differently in individuals using advanced biological analysis ...

INSTALL results showed successful and safe non-viral insertion of large genetic payloads in the livers of mice when delivered by lipid nanoparticles (LNPs). In contrast, mice experienced fatal immune ...

A new method for safely inserting large chunks of DNA into genomes has now measured up in mice, potentially paving the way ...

Learn about gene expression studies in progressive supranuclear palsy in Mayo Clinic's Precision Medicine in Neurodegeneration Lab led by Nilufer Ertekin-Taner, M.D., Ph.D.

Livestock breeders could soon have more tools to improve the health and quality of their animals, thanks to a recent study that sheds new light on regulatory elements in the sheep genome.
