The control of gene expression in eukaryotes is more complex than that in prokaryotes. In general, a greater number of regulatory proteins are involved, and regulatory binding sites may be located ...

coli? The answer lies in the difference in gene expression and regulation used. Regulation of transcription in eukaryotes is a result of the combined effects of structural properties (how DNA is ...

Alternative splicing is crucial for eukaryotic gene expression and influences protein function and regulation, with mis-splicing linked to numerous diseases. In this webinar, Dr. Megan L Noonan will ...

The unexpected discovery may provide scientists with new insights into how cancer develops — and how to combat it.

While slower, eukaryotic protein synthesis provides a higher degree of regulation than prokaryotic systems, allowing for ...

By tethering transcription factors—and with them, hundreds of genes—to nuclear pore proteins, genes are moved to the edge of the nucleus, stimulating stronger gene expression. "Because Exportin-1 is ...

From regulating each other’s gene expression to encoding different parts of the same proteins, the two genome types in every eukaryotic cell are far from independent. Viviane was a Churchill Scholar ...

Only recently has the ribosome - one of the oldest molecular machines in evolutionary terms - been recognized as an active regulator of gene expression at the level of protein biosynthesis.

Artificial cells using riboswitch-gene fusion in liposomes produce fluorescent proteins when detecting specific targets.
