A research team led by Zhiping Weng, Ph.D., and Jill Moore, Ph.D."18, at UMass Chan Medical School, has nearly tripled the ...
Here, we define a gene regulatory network for Hoxa2, responsible for temporal and spatial expression in hindbrain development. Hoxa2 plays an important role in regulating the regional identity of ...
Gene regulation is the process by which cells control the expression of their genes, determining when, where, and to what extent each gene is expressed. It is a fundamental mechanism that allows cells ...
Precision and timing of gene expression is essential for normal biological functions and, when disrupted, can lead to many ...
Some sequences in the genome cause genes to be switched on or off. Until now, each of these gene switches, or so-called enhancers, was thought to have its own place on the DNA. Different enhancers are ...
BURLINGTON, Mass., May 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fractyl Health, Inc. (GUTS) (the Company), a metabolic therapeutics company pioneering pattern-breaking treatments for obesity and type 2 diabetes ...
Elucidating the relationship between the sequences of non-coding regulatory elements and their target genes is key to understanding gene regulation and its variation between plant species and ecotypes ...
Leaf senescence determines the duration of photosynthesis, nutrient remobilization efficiency, and ultimately crop yield and ...
On its 125th anniversary, Science magazine posed 125 unsolved scientific questions, among which “What genetic changes made us uniquely human?” was listed as one of the 25 core problems. Yet the ...
