Identifying and studying the genomic sequences responsible for gene regulation—commonly referred to as "enhancers"—is an essential ... Students participating in this project should have a basic ...

But cells have to be very careful about which genes are expressed when, and there are many mechanisms involved in the regulation of genes, such as gene promotors, transcription factors ...

Hwa believes this research will reframe how gene expression and regulation is taught in biology textbooks and classrooms around the world, saying it already runs contrary to things he currently ...

RNA gene scissors (CRISPR-Cas13) are gaining significant attention as a next-generation gene therapy with fewer side effects.

Cohesin is a protein that forms a ring-shaped complex which wraps and alters the DNA molecule shape. It moves through the DNA ...

The flow of genetic information underpins all of biology and relies heavily on nucleic acids. Our research delves into how genetic information is maintained in the cell, and the complex pathways that ...
