Jan. 30, 2025 — A research group has developed new advanced light-controlled tools that enable precise control of proteins in real time in living cells. This groundbreaking research opens doors ...

Here, the authors report cryo-EM structure of decameric cork-like TraT and its evolutionary history as a chromosomal gene that has been incorporated into multiple plasmid families.

The TP53 gene is a gene that is mutated in many cancers. It is the most common gene mutation found in cancer cells. A tumor-suppressor gene, TP53 codes for a protein that inhibits the development and ...

But Gounder had an idea: Perhaps Wolff's genes could point them in the right direction. Dr. Mrinal Gounder, a sarcoma medical oncologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) in New York ...

Significant gene variants were found in the loci DRD2, FURIN, and CYP7B1, which play a part in neuroinflammation, neurosteroid synthesis, and synaptic function.

The first human trial of insulin-producing cells that have been gene-edited to evade immune attack is a success so far. The cells have survived and produced insulin for a month after being ...

Scientists led by a team at Columbia University have trained a model to predict how the genes inside a cell will drive its behavior, which could be a powerful tool with the potential to broaden ...

They’ll check the fetus for mutations in the NOD2 gene. Finding a mutation in the gene doesn’t mean a diagnosis of Crohn’s disease. It only indicates an increased risk for developing the ...

A ba­by boy born with a de­bil­i­tat­ing ge­net­ic dis­ease will like­ly no longer re­quire a liv­er trans­plant to sta­bi­lize his con­di­tion, thanks to a first … ...

Summary: Researchers have developed an AI model that accurately predicts gene activity in any human cell, providing insights into cellular functions and disease mechanisms. Trained on data from over 1 ...

Human brain cells, classified into different groups according to gene expression (each color represents a group), are mapped back to their original locations in the human brain. A detailed analysis of ...

Overall, scientists think that how long we live is about 25 percent attributable to our genes, and 75 percent attributable to our environment and lifestyle. But as people near 100 and beyond ...
