New research has identified sections of DNA associated with altered regulation of gene expression underlying schizophrenia. The implicated loci contribute to schizophrenia risk by affecting ...
RNA splicing is a post-transcriptional modification process that occurs in eukaryotic cells. When a gene is transcribed, the initial RNA product is called pre-mRNA, which contains both coding regions ...
Computational biologists from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have uncovered how RNA splicing – a crucial process for isoform expression and protein diversity - is regulated across ...
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, are cut ...
Scientists at the Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) and the University of Las Vegas Nevada (UNLV) have uncovered a genetic link between autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and a rare genetic condition ...
Neuroendocrine tumors, including small cell lung cancer and neuroendocrine prostate cancer, are very aggressive with high chances of spreading. However, many individuals develop resistance to few ...
Omics technologies have enabled researchers to study the molecular functions of human tissues. But some tissues—like the brain—are harder to access than others. Because of the limited access to living ...
