A research team at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Ecology has successfully combined single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and single-cell mass spectrometry (scMS) analysis on the same plant ...

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 ...

Early-stage lung adenocarcinoma alters DNA methylation, mRNA transcription, and protein expression in adjacent tissues, exhibiting either steep changes at the tumor boundaries or shallow changes ...

New research from the Champalimaud Foundation (CF) reveals how missing just one essential amino acid can change gene ...

Our experiences leave traces in the brain, stored in small groups of cells called "engrams". Engrams are thought to hold the ...

Scientists discover a “runaway bulldozer” in ant DNA that silences smell genes, keeping chemical communication - and colony ...

Jonathan Henninger, an assistant professor of biological sciences, is part of a growing movement in the life sciences exploring how ribonucleic acid, known as RNA, can be harnessed to develop ...

Our experiences leave traces in the brain, stored in small groups of cells called engrams. Engrams are thought to hold the ...

Scientists have successfully created immature human egg-like cells from skin-derived stem cells, a significant step in ...

"These RNAs seem to act like postal codes for gene repression," said Dr. Anuj K. Verma, lead author of the study. "They help direct the polycomb complex to precise chromatin neighborhoods where stress ...

Researchers have shown for the first time that flipping an epigenetic “switch” in specific memory-holding neurons can directly alter memory strength.
