In addition to consensus sequences at their splice sites, eukaryotic genes with long introns also contain exonic splicing enhancers (ESEs). These sequences, which help position the splicing ...

Not just any sacrifice would appease its capricious tastes, however. Some days, it demanded the flesh of storied warriors.

mRNA splicing is a fundamental part of the process that occurs when encoded DNA instructions are turned into a functional protein. After a gene is transcribed from DNA to RNA, extraneous sections ...

RNA splicing is a cellular process that is critical for gene expression. After genes are copied from DNA into messenger RNA, portions of the RNA that don't code for proteins, called introns ...

Even before gene splicing became routine, a germ agent could be perfected in a few years, while a vaccine often took a decade to make and win approval. More than a decade after the Gulf War ...

Researchers at Kumamoto University have successfully executed a practical trial of a new genome-editing technique that allows ...

Alternative splicing plays a pivotal role in defining cell phenotypes and physiology in multicellular eukaryotes, often distinguishing between cell types more accurately than gene expression. 1 During ...

A human-specific NOVA1 variant changed mouse vocalizations, potentially providing insights into the evolution of language.

How can only 25,000-30,000 protein-coding genes in humans produce the massive variety of proteins, cells, and tissues that exist in our bodies? The answer: alternative splicing. A critical finding ...

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 ...

A pioneering study has uncovered the sophisticated tactics root-knot nematodes use to manipulate the genetic machinery of ...

Dyne Therapeutics’ DYNE-101 shows positive results in phase 1/2 ACHIEVE study. Read why DYN stock may rise with FDA approval and a $2.78B market opportunity.
