Sorghum bicolor is a deep-rooted, heat- and drought-tolerant crop that thrives on marginal lands and is increasingly valued ...

Investigators at Weill Cornell Medicine have developed a versatile and non-toxic technology for controlling the activity of any gene in a cell. Such "gene-switch" tools allow scientists to "turn on" ...

Much of the phenotypic variation that is observed within and between species is the result of differences in gene regulation: specifically when, where and how much the genes are expressed. Given the ...

Research from UChicago dissects how a single genetic switch helps butterflies mimic wing patterns of other species to protect ...

Sub-membrane microtubule array, known to prevent excessive glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, depends on kinesin-1 KIF5B, which moves microtubules to both generate and remodel this array, ...
