The genome incorporation mechanism for LINE-1, the only autonomously active retrotransposon in humans, leverages the cell ...

Viruses are known to use the genetic machinery of the human cells they invade to make copies of themselves. As part of the process, viruses leave behind remnants throughout the genetic material ...

The only remaining autonomous 'jumping gene' can only attach to, and stitch a copy of itself into, DNA when it builds up into large clusters and only as cells divide.

RNA-based technologies are a powerful molecular biology toolbox, empowering scientists to decipher the complexities of living ...

Researchers have developed a technique that enables efficient delivery of therapeutic proteins and RNA to cells. The method shows promising results in animal studies to deliver gene editors and ...

The RNA cloud formed around genes regulates their readout into RNA. Triplexes help define where in the genome a cloud forms. Proteins and other fl ...

Scientists found a genetic link between autism and DM1, where repeat DNA sequences disrupt brain gene splicing. This sheds light on ASD’s development and opens new paths for targeted treatments.

The discovery of the PHGDH gene’s role in Alzheimer’s disease and a potential treatment targeting its newly uncovered ...

New York, May 4: A groundbreaking study has shed light on how certain genetic elements, known as "jumping genes," can invade ...
